The Irish Genie

The Irish Genie We are a bespoke Irish-based genealogy service. Our professional genealogy service will provide a detailed review of available records

If you would like to discover your family’s history, then the Irish Genie can help you to research your Irish ancestors. The Irish Genie was founded by Frances Daly. I live in Dublin, Ireland and have a passion for Irish Genealogy. I have been researching my family for the last 15 years and have built an extensive family tree using various methodologies including DNA. I have completed genealogy courses in both UCD ( University College Dublin) and UL (University of Limerick). I am a member of the Irish Genealogical Research Society and the Pharos Pro-Am Genie Networking Group. I current work full time, but am available after 6 pm each evening and at weekends. If you could like to have a quick chat about your family tree please contact me at Frances@theirishgenie.ie I can arrange a suitable time to have a chat with you. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Black Friday was never a thing in Europe until a few years ago. Given its connection to US Thanksgiving, it has no cultural resonance across the Atlantic. However, it seems to be here to stay and with it comes some fantastic genealogy offers. Here are some of the particularly good deals available if...

🏇 Tracing Irish Roots at the Galway Races 🏇

As the sound of thundering hooves returns to Ballybrit, the Galway Races isn’t just a highlight of the summer—it’s a celebration of heritage. Behind every jockey, breeder, and punter lies a legacy shaped by generations of Irish families. For many, horse racing was more than sport—it was livelihood, identity, and community.

📜 Is there a racehorse trainer or stable hand in your family tree?

🏠 Did your ancestors farm the lands of Galway and attend race week as a rite of passage?

📸 Have you uncovered a photo from the races decades ago—flat caps, tweed coats, and all?

We want to hear your story. 💬 Share your connections to the Galway Races—whether it’s a treasured memory, a family link, or a mystery waiting to be uncovered.
