About

The Ulster Historical Foundation is a long-established, highly reputable research and publishing agency. It offers extensive knowledge on the sources available for tracing Irish and Scots-Irish ancestors. Services include online databases of over 2 million records, genealogy and history books, personal ancestral research, delivering education and community outreach projects and running heritage tourism events.

Supporters belong to its Ulster Genealogical and Historical Guild, where members can share research interests and receive two annual publications, invitations to educational and social events, and product discounts.

By making an appointment, members of the public can use its databases at its office, as well as arranging a consultation on your family history research.
