    Presented by William Roulston


    $15 for IGSI members (with Discount Code); $20 for non-members

    Are you among the millions across the world with Presbyterian ancestors from Ireland? Dr. Roulston will help you to identify and learn more about these forebears.

    Different strands of Presbyterianism were found in Ireland, so a array of records from those denominations can be confusing. Where can this material can be accessed for research? Records vary: the higher courts of Presbyterianism, individual congregations, as well as personal papers of individual ministers. Whether your ancestors were Covenanters, Seceders, or Non-Subscribers, whether devout or merely nominal, whether they remained in Ireland or emigrated, Dr Roulston can help to navigate and have fruitful research.

    Dr William Roulston will give his presentation from Belfast. He has a PhD in Archaeology and for nearly 30 years he has been with the Ulster Historical Foundation as a researcher, author, and lecturer. He speaks widely in the UK, Ireland and North America on on a range of historical and genealogical subjects.

    SHARING TOGETHER

    Monday September 22, 2025 at 6:30 pm CST via Zoom 

    The National Danish-American Genealogical Society invites you to join us for an informal evening of networking with others interested in Danish and Danish-American genealogy. Share a recent success, show off a family heirloom, ask for help on a roadblock, and more. We'll go wherever the conversation leads us, but you are sure to come away with some great insights and hopefully will share some of your own. This event is free and open to the public.  To see other upcoming NDAGS events, learn about our one-of-a-kind newsletter, and more, please visit our website at: https://danishgenealogy.org/
