==Information==
'''Northern Ireland''' is one of the four constituent parts of the [[United Kingdom]] (together with [[England Genealogy|England]], [[Scotland Genealogy|Scotland]] and [[Wales Genealogy|Wales]]). Northern Ireland, is of fairly recent origin, coming out of the partition of the island of [[Ireland Genealogy|Ireland]] in 1921. Northern Ireland was retained as part of the UK, and the rest of Ireland, became an independent state, and was known as the Irish Free State in 1922, and after 1949, the Republic of Ireland. The official language is English.<ref>Wikipedia contributors, "Northern Ireland," in ''Wikipedia: the Free Encyclopedia,'' https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northern_Ireland, accessed 25 April 2016.</ref>
