GSQ would like to invite anyone interested in Genealogical Research to attend the

2nd and 4th Wednesday nights, via Zoom

If you cannot get to GSQ; or working during the day; unable to attend the other Zoom meetings; and just want a bit of help with your research, then the Wednesday nights might be just what you are looking for.

Ireland and the White Boys of Galway.

A concise history of Ireland’s turmoil leading to the legislation and why the White Boys existed.
Ireland is an island that has been occupied by successive groups of people. From well before BC; The Celts; Christianity; Vikings; The Normans; The English Reformation; and much in relation to the Old English, Old Irish and New English.
By the middle of the 1700’s the Irish countryside was unsettled, stirred, as always, by agrarian grievances grounded in the hated land settlement.
Come and listen to the fascinating history behind the Whiteboyism, why it occurred, what happened and just who were these lads.

Di Kennedy

Extremely interested in her Irish Ancestry and discovering she has a White Boy in the family, prompted her to seek and find out more.
Di is the secretary of GSQ DNA SIG, involved in many of our Zoom sessions as she now lives in New South Wales.

The meeting is hosted by Ailsa Corlett, and it is a self help group in which you pose your questions or problems and others within the group offer their ideas, web sites, books and knowledge on where next you might go to find your answers.

The 4th Wednesday of the month is for a Guest Speaker to talk in relation to specific topics.

Come and join us on Zoom.

Please send your name, email and any questions to wedpmzoom@gsq.org.au so that a link can be sent to you.
The link will be sent out on the Monday night.
