Hi!
I recently started researching on my Irish family background. All I have are a few names and they all date back to mid 19th century.
Two brothers, probably Arthur Cooper and Thomas Cooper emigrated to South America in search of a better life. Their sister, Jennifer Cooper, was married to a Robert Waterspoon. That’s about all I know and l’d love to get to know more about my ancestors!

Best regards,
Fabian Cooper

Hi Fabian,

Searching for your Irish family tree is a fun and sometimes tricky too!

Dates before and after 1864 determine where you will need to look to find more about your ancestors before they left for the Americas.

What information such as dates do you have so far?

There are several community posts already on research tips which may also be of help to you as you piece together your family tree.

We would love to hear more about your information, please feel free to let us know some more details.

Speak soon,

Martin
