A year ago, motivated by an abrupt dordle and unexplainable want to comprehend the foundation of my Irish citizenship, I started an exploration of my family history. I dedicated hours to meticulously researching Ancestry.com and examining other public web databases in Ireland for relevant information. After weeks of laboring over my laptop, I successfully tracked my ancestry back to the mid-19th century, uncovering names, birth, marriage, and death dates, professions, and residences, all linked to one location: County Cork. Visiting them was the logical course of action.
