		<description><![CDATA[It's often said that people are Ireland's most important export. Millions of people left their homes here to seek a better life in another country. For some it was a matter of choice, for most a matter of desperation.

Now their descendants are returning, keen to learn more about the stories of their grand parents and great grandparents. Genealogy has become big business.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Starting to trace your roots can seem a daunting task, but there are two things that make it quickly seem more manageable. 

The first is that you almost certainly already know more than you think, and the second that there is a LOT of help and information already out there, if you know where to find it.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Official records in the past were not in the language of the people, Irish, but in either English or Latin, which can lead to a lot of confusion over names.

Dates too may be slightly inaccurate and a single place can have multiple names. How do you make sense of all this?]]></description>
