Conducting Irish genealogical research in a law library is generally for those with intermediate to advanced skills. However, anyone can search the Nominate Reports for names or families of interest in a specific area. In some instances there may be a family story indicating that there was a legal dispute over property in Ireland. While not all cases were recorded in the reports, those that set a precedent were summarized and published year-by-year.
Law libraries can be intimidating if you do not have a research plan and specific objectives. The reference staff typically does not assist family historians and rarely understands the research perspective from which you are approaching your investigation. With that in mind, the information in this Wiki page may help you with crafting your research strategy and identify specific items to request in your law library research. With this information, the staff will be very able to assist you.
