Roz McCutcheon, Vice-President & Vice Chairman of the IGRS Along with the rest of the Irish genealogical community, it was with great sadness that I recently learned of the sudden death of Roz McCutcheon. She was an esteemed Irish genealogist, both a fellow of the Irish Genealogical Research Society and the Society of Genealogists (read Claire Santry's news story on the announcement last year.) What Roz didn't know about the Registry of Deeds wasn't worth knowing and I learned so much about this resource from her.
She was extremely generous with her knowledge and, as a talented actress with a wicked sense of humour, she was a wonderfully entertaining speaker. I manned stalls and helpdesks at family history fairs with her a couple of times and fondly remember her spontaneously breaking into song whenever the notion took her.
Her passing leaves an enormous hole in our community and our hearts. She truly was an inspiration and will be sadly missed by her many friends. My deepest condolences to her family.
