The East Galway Family History Society Co. Ltd. is based in the village of Woodford, in southeast County Galway. It is located at the Woodford Heritage Centre - a former school building dating back to 1834 located on Barkhill, at the southern end of the village. Set up in 1991, the Society was established to provide a genealogical research service for national and international clients through the collection, transcription and computerisation of historical records for the East Galway area. It is a designated centre of the Irish Genealogical Project which is a countrywide network of centres that transcribes and computerises genealogical records along with providing an ancestry tracing service for the public.
