North Irish Roots was first published in 1984, and has proved popular with members, especially overseas ones, for whom it is the starting point for contacts and information about their Irish forebears. Copies remain of most of the recent volumes, although many of the earlier issues are out of print. The Society therefore decided to produce an index to all the volumes, to assist new members and to give old members a handy guide as to what subjects have been covered.  The index, which includes an order form, also gives details how to obtain copies of articles in out-of-print issues.

The Index costs £2 including postage (£3 overseas) and may be obtained from the General Secretary at the Society’s usual address or by mail order using our Order Form
