Where are you now?

Five questions. There are no wrong answers, and "I am not sure" is a real answer to any of them. On some combinations it leaves us without enough to place you, and when that happens we say so and ask for one more clue rather than putting you in a stage we are not sure about.

The questions work out your stage in your own browser, using answers worked out in advance. With JavaScript off there is nothing to run them. The County Mayo page explains the five stages in full, and you can ask us directly instead.

Do you have Irish ancestry?

A family story counts. It does not have to be proven yet.

Yes, my family was Irish No, I am researching for somebody else I am not sure

Do you have anything to work from?

A surname, a family story, an old document, a certificate, a DNA result: any of these count.

Yes, I have at least one of those No, nothing beyond the family being Irish I am not sure

How precisely do you know where in Ireland they came from?

Pick the most precise one you are reasonably confident about, not the most hopeful.

Are you thinking about going to Ireland?

This changes nothing about your research. It only decides whether we mention the things that involve being there.

Your answers stay in your browser. Nothing is sent anywhere unless you choose to save your next steps by email at the end.
