-=== Step 1: Search records in the country where your ancestors settled  ===
-Here are reasons why you should search records in the country where your ancestors settled:
-*There are 32 counties and more than a thousand parishes in Ireland. It is possible to find dozens of people by the same name and in the same time period as your ancestor. Which one will you choose?
-*Country-wide vital records of the population of Ireland were not kept for the whole population until 1864. If you are looking for an ancestor before then, you may need to use surname distribution tools to narrow your search down to a specific county and parish. An online surname county distribution tool is available at John Grenham's [https://www.johngrenham.com/ Irish Ancestors]
-Records in the country to where your ancestors immigrated can provide clues about where they lived in Ireland. To learn about these records, click on a country where they settled.
