Welcome

Fermanagh Genealogy Centre is an independent registered charity (NIC100414) run entirely by volunteers with extensive local and genealogical knowledge.
We are the delivery partner for genealogical services at Fermanagh and Omagh District Council, based at Fermanagh Visitor Information Centre in Enniskillen Castle.

During the unforeseen curtailment of our events and activities, we have been searching the internet and it’s amazing what you can find. See our new Video Links page.
