Highlighting Irish heritage in March

Interested in your Irish roots? You can research them at the Heritage Centre in Cooroy.

Members and visitors enjoy access to the large collection of resources, with experienced researchers on hand to share knowledge and pave the way for a novice to gain confidence and continue searching independently.

The Heritage Centre hosts an Irish Interest Group meeting the first Wednesday of the month. They have been especially busy in March, fielding Irish family history enquiries as well as preparing for their St Patrick’s Day morning tea on the 17th.

If you are interested in family and local history, phone the Centre on 07 3129 0356 or drop in at 17 Emerald St Cooroy on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays from 9.30am to 1pm.
