Established in 2005 and based in Wellington NZ, we are here to help you research your Irish ancestry.
Meetings/Research Days
Education days are held at Tawa Union Church, 6 Elena Place, Tawa, Wellington twice yearly with guest speakers on Irish research, a help desk and our library books available for research. The AGM is usually held in May with a guest speaker.
