Findmypast.ie has released online the third batch of records from the Petty Sessions order books (1850-1910).

Another 8 million cases are to follow throughout 2012.

If you have roots stretching back to counties Limerick, Louth, Mayo, Monaghan, Tipperary, or Wexford you'll find this group of records particularly useful.
