RESEARCH

The Society encourages historical reseach, particularly in relation to Malahide, it's environs and it's people. We will also be pleased to consider publishing suitable material in the "NEWSLETTER" and/or on this website.

The "NEWSLETTER"

An average of three editions per year of the "NEWSLETTER" have been distributed to members since the Society was founded in September 1978. A very wide variety of topics of mainly local historical interest have been covered in this journal over the years. A glance at the alphabetical index will confirm the breath of information available. However, please be aware that an entry might refer to anything from a passing reference to substantial detail.

The back numbers should provide plenty of inspiration and information, particularly for those doing school projects or essays.

 Click here to view the alphabetical index.

Back numbers are available by post, price €2 each.Files containing copies of all issues to date may be consulted free at Malahide Public Library and the Cottage Museum.
