Heraldry and genealogy presentation

With Mike OLaughlin, your host

Irish Heraldry, arms and genealogy launch
at Dublin, Ohio Irish fest and KC libraries..
Our new show for 2018 is launching at the Dublin,
Ohio Irish Fest on Aug. 3, 2018 at 7:30 (workshop tent).
It will also appear at several Mid-Continent Libraries
in the Kansas City area this fall. (located inside).
Time and locations tba.

Irish Families ancient and modern
The presentation will cover the eras before and
after the coming of the Norman invasion in the
12th century. The early times were different from
those after the invasion which involved a cultural
change over time. Banners and standards from early
Ireland are well known to have existed, but
‘to the victors go the spoils’, and hence they have
been largely forgotten…

The Presentation
Among the attractions at this presentation are
up to 10 large posters for viewing, to aid in
understanding these topics.
A video may also be shown in, with over 1000
1000 entries from the Irish Book of Arms.

Earlier pedigrees and family notes
Largely overlooked by many researchers, the notes
included by the herald often include dates and
locations for the family name. It often names
collateral branches of the family as well.

How to get this presentation
We will be offering this presentation, along
with consultation as possible in 2018 and
2019. Cost will vary based upon location and
exact date requested. Contact Mike at the Irish
Roots Cafe for further information.

A Fresh Look at a genealogical resource
This is a fresh look at Irish heraldry and at
a historical resource that is to often ignored.

Looking forward to our shows later this year…
