From 1848 - 1950 over 6 million adults and children emigrated from Ireland - over 2.5 million departed from Cobh. Our genealogical record finder has been designed for people interested in tracing their ancestors but have no knowledge of genealogical records. 

   

A special exhibition at Cobh Heritage Centre commemorates Cork-born Fr. Frank Browne who travelled on the ill-fated Titanic from Southampton to Queenstown (Cobh). Frank Browne was a keen photographer and recorded many images of the new ship. He was one of seven passengers who left the Titanic when she called to Queenstown on 11 April 1912 to collect 123 people from the busy emigrant port. On 15 April the Titanic sank with the loss of over 1,500 lives

This free exhibition will open at
Cobh Heritage Centre on 24th November 2011
