An extra year of Irish genealogy records can now be accessed online. Birth entries relating to 1920 are now available on irishgenealogy.ie, along with marriages from 1945 and deaths from 1970.

The Irish government says these records are vital in helping people find out about their ancestry.

The website is free to use and no subscription or registration is required to use it. It may be found at https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/en/.
