Can anyone suggest the easiest way to trace irish ancestors. Is there a free website or a pay site to trace them. They come from Cork.

My ancestors also came from Cork and I've found a number of useful sites and contacts. There's so little in the way of records I often think i would have more luck researching a third world country! If you pm me with what info you have I may well be able to suggest some useful sites and contacts.
