	You can contact the Archives here.... http://www.tcd.ie/Library/manuscripts/collections/archives.php And click on contact us. I would send them an e.mail as a general enquiry....They do say they have student records. I e.mailed the Archivist at the Dublin Bluecoat School about my GGrandmother and the Archivist very kindly went through her records for no charge. I hope you are as lucky Chris

	I have had a communication from a family member telling me that an ancestor attended Trinity College Dublin and had a flair for languages. Please could anyone tell me if there are any lists of scholars that I could apply for? The date would have been early 1800s.
