(APGI), which was founded in 1986, acts as a regulating
body to maintain high standards amongst its members
and to protect the interests of clients. Our members
are drawn from every part of Ireland and represent
a wide variety of interests and expertise.
The ongoing involvement of individual
members in lecturing and publishing maintains our
position at the forefront of genealogical developments
in Ireland.
