Does anyone know the best papers and e-mail contact addresses for them for putting a 'looking for'' notice in in Ireland - Not sure if north or south so issues and addresses for both areas will be required.

Many thanks

Hi Liz

I did try but I have no idea as to which is the most read. I want to place an ad asking a certain person to contact me so rather than spreading it in all papers I'm after the most read. All I know is that this person is in Ireland. I don't think there is an accessible electoral register accessible in Ireland but I may be wrong.

Regards

If you google "Irish Electoral Roll" there are several results, I hope one is of use to you.

Hi Liz

Thanks for the link - I have made a request to attempt another piece of the jigsaw.

Hi Dennis,
My husband buys *IRELANDS OWN* every week and people do write in and ask for help in searches, sometimes.
I have e-mailed asking the origin of my Irish husbands name and been answered.
On top of perhaps getting some information, it is a nice wee read every week too.
Good luck,
Deanna X

PS. Try also *THE IRISH POST* which has an information exchange at the bottom of the letters page.
