Welcome to Pensear Irish Genealogy Search - Census Data from the Irish
Pension Records
This site - www.pensear.org - provides a searchable database derived from the records that survived the burning of the public records and Irish census information in Dublin’s Four Courts in 1922…
Pensear will help you with your Ireland Genealogy, with a great wealth of information on your Irish ancestors to help you dig up your Irish roots.
Irish research is notoriously difficult - in fact when most people research their Irish origins they come up against a stone wall - the Irish census records that were destroyed in the great fire. But Irish ancestry is not so difficult to research - the Ireland pension records of the time, which contain the Ireland census records, were not destroyed, and contain many, many people that may be a member of your Ireland family tree.
There is also an online step-by-step guide on using Pensear.
At pensear.org you can search all the records we have transcribed to look for your Irish ancestors. The search is made using the surname you are researching (for more information on how to search read our step-by-step guide). You can decide which records look relevant to your search and purchase only these. At only £2.00 per record we offer great value for money.
There are more than 100,000 names, in northern and southern Ireland! You can review an extract of surnames in the database here to check if your Irish roots are on Pensear.
When you subscribe we will email you our brochure giving more details about Pensear.org and how it can help you. We will also notify you of any special offers.
