Catriona Crowe
Since its establishment in 2006, Limerick Genealogy has been run by Catriona Crowe. Having graduated with a degree in History and Archaeology in University College Dublin, Catriona continued her interest in Ireland's history and heritage and in particular that of Limerick, through studies in Heritage Management and Local History while continuing to work within the field. Catriona began working in genealogy in 2001 with the former research service Limerick Ancestry. With its closure in 2004, Catriona set about establishing a new service and Limerick Genealogy began operating as a self-sustaining organisation in 2006.
Since 2006, Catriona has helped thousands of individuals in Limerick, throughout Ireland, the U.K., the U.S., Australia, Canada and New Zealand in tracing their Limerick roots. Recent notable projects include tracing U.S. comedian Conan O’Brien’s ancestry to Galbally, county Limerick and researching the Famine-era ancestors of Spice Girl Melanie Chisholm in Croom, county Limerick for the BBC's long running genealogy series, Who Do You Think You Are?
