Highlight of our Trip – I am finding it hard to put my feelings into words to describe the gratification my family and I experienced on our Ancestral Townland tour with Ian. This was… read more our first trip to Ireland, and it turned out to be the trip of a lifetime. We could have spent a month in Ireland, and could not have accomplished what Sean, Aisling and Ian were able to provide for us on our tour to the homeland of our ancestors. Ian, with his wit and tremendous knowledge of Irish history guided us through the trials and tribulations of our ancestors far beyond our expectations. To walk in the footsteps of your ancestors does something to your soul. The books provided by Sean and Aisling will be passed on to generations to come.
Aisling, Ian and Sean make quite an extraordinary team!
My son and I can’t say enough about My Ireland Heritage.
Their research, before our arrival, closed the gaps… read more in my geneology story. They arrangied visits for us with two parish priests so I could find baptismal and marriage records that eluded me in all my online searching.
Ian took us to the family home and farmland. Amazing to walk where my grandmother had worked and played before emigrating to the USA.
Along with the tour, I received a book with my personal family history in the context of Irish history. I’m now even more I spired to research other family members.
I have just had the most intense and personal journey facilitated by Sean, and Ian with gracious communication from Aisling in setting up my tour. Genealogy tracing is not… read more easy especially in Ireland and the loss of an abundance of records in the early part of the 20th century makes it particularly difficult. Although I was not able to link with any remaining abodes of my families, through various town land data and mapping I was able to go to the areas they had lived before being forced out of their homeland, and learn about the history of my clans. There were tenuous links here and there but I think its important to keep expectations realistic in Ireland genealogy. Sean is a walking encyclopaedia of Irish history and Ian could not have been more generous. They gave me a spiritual link to my past that puts a lot of family traits into perspective. Thank you so much.
I was completely overwhelmed by all that Sean, Ian and Aisling did to give me and my daughter the experience of a lifetime! Ian was the perfect guide. He… read more took us everywhere! Lands,homes,churches,graveyards where my ancestors lived and are buried. The extra touches and history made it live for me like I could never have imagined. I’m thankful for all of the hard work and heart that was put into every step. A highlight of our trip to Ireland! I can’t wait to share what I’ve learned with the rest of my family so that our ancestors will always be remembered in America.
Thank you!
Because of COVID a planned trip became a research only endeavor. I started the journey to honor my recently passed grandmother and to give some answers about our family to… read more her brother who had been researching the family for a long time.
I was super excited to talk with Sean and with his guidance I was able to find out more information that he needed to trace some of the family. When I received my book it was beautiful bound and very comprehensive on most of the Family. Most of the time I was able to quickly correspond with Aisling and Sean, and he most graciously held off on sending my book at my request in the futile hope that I’d find more information to help him find my great-great grandpa.
Which leads us to why I gave them an average rating instead of an excellent rating. Sean was able to quickly find most of my family besides for the main one I’d asked him to research, there he couldn’t find anything. Knowing genealogy normally this wouldn’t be something upsetting, but I found out that he had previously done research on this specific branch and had turned up nothing. If during our consultation he’d simply said "I’ve researched them before and haven’t had any luck, but would be glad to try again" then this probably would have been an excellent review. Also the book is a bit hard to interpret without help.
We enlisted My Ireland Heritage Tours for family research and private tours. Our first tour was to County Meath, which is an amazing place with thousands of years of… read more history and so many places to see. We spent a good long day on this tour, we probably made it long by asking so many questions. We visited New Grange, Hills Of Tara, many old castles and monasteries, and learned more about the Battle of the Boyne. The towns and countryside are amazingly beautiful. Ian was our guide, and we can’t say enough good things about Ian. He really made the tours special. His energy, enthusiasm, personality and humor were great and we know consider him a good friend. He also was a wealth of information, taught us a lot and answered so many of our questions.
Our 2nd tour was to Elphin & the Strokestown are of County Roscommon. My Ireland Heritage did a lot of research before we arrived. Once again, Ian took us to many places and we learned so much. Again, the towns and countryside were gorgeous, but this area was significantly affected by the famine.
This experience was enlightening and emotional.
I highly recommend using this company. We plan on using them again on our next trip.
My partner and I recently returned from a trip to Ireland where we planned to visit the towns where my ancestors had lived before emigrating to America. With the… read more help of My Heritage Tours we ended up having an amazing experience! I contacted the company only a few weeks before leaving on our trip and they were able to provide me with a Snapshot’ package for two of my ancestors’ families which made it possible for us to visit the towns where they were from and their homes where they lived within ten yards. Aisling was very efficient, personable and responsive to all of my questions. Sean was so pleasant to work with before and during our trip and was available personally by phone every step of our journey. I will forever be grateful and appreciative of Sean and Aisling making our experience so special and memorable!
Our recent trip to Ireland included a stop in County Meath to see what My Ireland Heritage was able to uncover for my family ancestry. We were looking forward… read more to viewing the area where my 2nd great grandparents lived before emigrating to the US and discovering what their lives might have been like.
We opted to do the two day tour package with My Ireland Heritage. We wanted to see the historic sites in County Meath and were not disappointed with Seán’s knowledge of the area and Irish history. On the 2nd day’s tour, thanks to Seán, we were able to see the village of Nobber where my ancestors were from. We walked on the lane where my family lived, loved, played, worked, cried, and laughed. I was overwhelmed, at times, with what we saw and the amount of information that Seán provided about the area, and what life would have been like for my family. I loved the idea that to get to church, people would walk through the fields as a short cut. I also enjoyed learning that my 2nd great grandfather and grandmother probably met in Nobber during market day as they were from different town lands outside the village.
Working with My Ireland Heritage was a wonderful experience which I would highly recommend. Seán is a very good genealogy researcher and takes pride in his work, he ensures that a thorough job is done for his clients.
Hats off to My Ireland Heritage for a job well down!
I loved being able to see the specific land, church, and graveyard where my ancestors spent their lives. Not only do you learn about them, but you learn Irish history… read more as well which gives you perspective on how they lived. We were also able to see many scenic and historical sites along the way. Sean, Aisling, and Ian were great to work with. I have somewhat limited mobility due to arthritis and Ian was very mindful of that. He allowed me to go at my own pace. It was a wonderful experience.
My experience with My Ireland Heritage was all that I dreamed it would be. I had hoped to experience the townlands, graveyards, and foot paths my ancestors traveled and tended.… read more Through Sean & Ian’s research I was able to experience the townland of Kilgar, walk through graveyards in Fore and Archerstown, and travel the pathways (now roadways) that my ancestors did. I provided as much information that my family had on our Irish ancestors. Utilizing this, in addition to their genealogical expertise, Ian & Sean were able to locate relevant records providing missing pieces for my family. I spent the day with Ian traveling to the townlands and graveyards. Additionally, Ian’s natural friendliness resulted in an unexpected connection with church staff in Castletown-Delvin.
The logistics side of this trip was expertly handled by Aisling. Her competence and expert guidance helped in locating appropriate lodging and securing dates that worked well for all of us. As I continue to investigate additional branches of my Irish ancestry, my hope is to return to Ireland and secure the assistance of My Ireland Heritage.
