Family History Centre
The Wicklow Family History Centre is a genealogy research service established
in 1987 by Wicklow County Council and FAS. Since its foundation, our staff have
computerised County Wicklow's Roman Catholic and Church of Ireland parish
registers. Church records of Methodist and Presbyterian circuits within the
county have also been computerised. Our church records for the County of Wicklow
date from the seventeenth century and stop at 1900.
Other records held by the Wicklow Family History Centre include land and tax
records such as Griffith's Valuation and the Tithe Applotment books, Ordnance
Survey town land maps, parish maps, place histories, commercial directories and
tombstone inscriptions. These sources enable us to give Wicklow descendants as
complete a picture as possible of where and how their ancestors lived.
