Welcome to An Irish Life, the home of the Irish Diaspora.

This site is a public archive of stories about people of Irish descent from all parts of the world; a mixture of family journals, obituaries, short biographies and tributes. A unique record and insight into the lives of ordinary Irish people wherever they live.

If you are of Irish descent we invite you to contribute an article, pay a tribute to a friend, write a mini biography or record an obituary for a relative. Feel free to browse the site, read the stories and learn about the lives of your fellow Irishmen and Irishwomen. All the stories on this site are submitted by ordinary members of the public.

Every year the stories and obituaries submitted to this site are published in a series of books, beautifully presented and ideal gifts for friends and family.

Take this opportunity to become part of a unique historical archive of the Irish Diaspora.
