YOU’RE JUST SECONDS AWAY FROM THE ESSENTIAL HELP YOU NEED TO RESEARCH YOUR IRISH FAMILY HISTORY!

DOES ANY OF THE FOLLOWING  SOUND FAMILIAR...

  • You have discovered an Irish ancestor in your family - but don't know how to find their roots in Ireland.
  • It can be so difficult to figure out Irish surnames and placenames. The spelling just seems to change from record to record...
  • You have a great tree on Ancestry.com - but most of the brick walls seem to be on the Irish side...
  • It's so frustrating trying to pin down an Irish record or relevant source on your side of the world - you'd love to have access to some folks in Ireland...

If it does sound familiar, then you already know how difficult it can be to get quality advice & support

THAT'S THE REASON WE BUILT THE GREEN ROOM

We were fed up hearing how good people were being frustrated and let down in the pursuit of their Irish Family History, thanks to:

  • Hard-to-access Irish records that can be difficult to decipher and interpret...
  • So many incorrect trees and information on sites like Ancestry.com...
  • Technical explanations and tutorials that give you all the ins and outs of genealogical research - but don't say a thing about the stories and lives of your Irish ancestors...
  • Not knowing where to go next - should you hire a genealogist? How much would that cost? Where would you even start looking for one...

We're happy to say all of that is behind you...

  • The Green Room is a unique learning and support community for Irish Family History Researchers.
  • It’s dedicated to JUST Irish Family History Research!

WHAT MAKES THE GREEN ROOM DIFFERENT?


ACCESS TO EXPERTISE

Tap into the fact that we are based in Ireland (established for over 10 years) with a proven track record of helping people to break down their Irish ancestry brick walls - and enjoy the process!

WE ARE IRISH AND BASED IN IRELAND

We live in Ireland and spend much of the year connecting with local experts as well as travelling the 32 counties to gather stories and family histories.

COMMUNITY SUPPORT

With over 5,000 members - all fellow Irish family history researchers - the Green Room community is always here to answer all your questions and to provide feedback and support.

WE WALK THE TALK

While others teach and advise based on library materials and records - we head out into the field talking with local historians, "characters",  as well as walking the farms, cemeteries, villages and towns of your Irish ancestors.

SEE HOW WE APPROACH RESEARCH

Our Quick-Win and training modules show you how to approach a research situation - as you look over our shoulder see how we do research and produce genealogist and homelands reports.

OUR 100% COMMITMENT

We eat, sleep and breathe Irish heritage and family history. The Green Room is 100% of our focus. We love helping our members to break down those brick walls (and have fun along the way). The Green Room is all we do, and we plan to be around for a long time.

MEET MIKE AND CARINA

Hi, we're Mike and Carina Collins - and we’ve spent years helping thousands of people of Irish ancestry from all around the world to break down those brick-walls and have lots more fun when doing so!


We are based in a cottage in County Cork in the south of the country - but spend a lot of time on the road around Ireland working on behalf of our members. We have a combined 40+ years experience in both online and offline training, coaching and education - and have built online educational platforms for clients in a number of industries. Along the way, our hobbies have always involved storytelling, local history, writing, photography and travelling this lovely island that we are fortunate to call home.


In 2014 we decided to combine all of that knowledge and experience and use it to help people of Irish ancestry - just like you - to achieve more success with their Irish family history research and really bring it to life! This is now our full time pursuit and we seriously love spending our days travelling the 32 counties of Ireland, gathering stories, creating content and supporting our members.

ALL GREEN ROOM MEMBERS GET ACCESS TO:

IMMEDIATE ACCESS TO OUR TRAINING COURSES

We have a large library of content for you to use and enjoy as soon as you join. They include full courses  helping you to understand Irish placenames and land divisions to Church Records to DNA Testing, to "quick-win" tutorials and expert workshops that "deep dive" into specific approaches to Irish ancestry research. All tied together by our "Green Room Research Wheel".


Learn just what you need - when you need it - from whatever device you want.

ASK THE GENEALOGIST

One of the things that makes the Green Room unique is that we have both an Ireland-based and US-based genealogist on-hand to answer your questions and provide you with guidance on overcoming those ancestry brick-walls.

HOW TO KNOW IF THE GREEN ROOM IS RIGHT FOR YOU...

The Green Room is NOT for everyone, and we'd prefer to help you decide if it's not right for you BEFORE you join rather than waste any of your time. Let's have a look at what we mean...

WHO THE GREEN ROOM IS FOR

  • People who are ready to take a leap forward with their Irish family history research. If you follow our direction and take action  - you will see progress.
  • Someone who is curious, eager to learn and can follow up on suggestions from our in-house experts, genealogists and other members.
  • People who are happy to share their own approaches and discoveries so others can learn. Even better if you like encouraging others and celebrating when they succeed!
  • Someone who is comfortable with the basics of interacting with a computer (typing, copying and pasting, playing videos etc.)
  • People who take action - who aren’t just going to watch some training videos and never try things out. While we provide the training and resources, but you still need to put the work in!

WHO THE GREEN ROOM IS NOT FOR

  • Someone who just "dumps" all of their research into a forum and says "if anyone knows anything let me know". This is called "genealogical fly-tipping" and won't get you far.
  • People who just don't know their way around a computer screen. You will only get results if you are comfortable with typing, following online tutorials etc.
  • Close-minded individuals who have already decided that their research is flawless - and they don't like to be challenged. You will be challenged in the Green Room (in a  positive way).
  • Someone who is looking for a done for you service. We’re not paid-by-the-hour genealogists, and we don't do your research for you - but will give you guidance, support and answer questions along the way.
  • People who want guaranteed results - we know that our approach works for the majority of people but cannot guarantee that you will get specific results from following our advice. I'm afraid no one can give a promise like that!

It might seem unusual, trying to talk you OUT of being a member of the Green Room - but if our approach is not right for you then we wish you luck. We have a huge interest in your success - and that starts by both of us making sure The Green Room is the right fit for you before joining.

WHAT OUR MEMBERS SAY ABOUT US


Your site is growing in so many good ways and it’s such a pleasure to be a member. I hope you are truly encouraged by the feedback of your very appreciative members. You and Carina are melding a very important aspect of Irish history and heritage to our personal genealogical endeavours. Thanks for bringing it all to life for us!‬ "


Jack Healey, USA


The genealogy content is amazing but I never expected the sense of "belonging" that I've experienced.  In this day and age when social media is full of snarky comments, it's so nice to come here with like-minded people where everyone treats everyone else with respect.  Thank you again for the awesome community you all have created!
