Eoin O'Mahony Bursary in Irish History

This scheme was established in memory of the genealogist and newspaper columnist Eoin O’Mahony, offering funding for candidates engaged in historical research on subjects of Irish interest, including family history projects, particularly those associated with the ‘Wild Geese’. These seven bursaries which have been offered provide support for the direct costs of consulting sources which are not available in Ireland.
