Indexes held in the Genealogical Office
- GO 59: This is a detailed calendar of manuscripts 1- 58, particularly useful since many of these consist of very early heterogeneous material bound together for preservation.
- GO 115: Indexes the following: Arms A C; Grants & Confirmations, A & B; Visitations; British Families;
- Funeral Entries; Registered Pedigrees Vols 1-10. Only the Visitations (GO 47 - 49) and British Families (GO 44 - 46) are not indexed more fully elsewhere.
- GO 116: An unfinished index
- GO 117: Duplicates much of the material indexed in GO 422, GO 470 and Hayes' Manuscript Sources.
Only the following are not covered elsewhere:
- Antrim Families (GO 213);
- Fisher Mss (GO 280-85);
- Irish Arms at the College of Heralds (GO 37);
- Irish Coats of Arms (Fota) (GO 526);
- Heraldic Sketches (GO 125);
- Betham Letter Books (GO 362-78);
- Ecclesiatical Visitations (GO 198-9);
- Reynell Mss (GO 445).
- GO 148: Index to Linea Antiqua . The version at the end of GO 147, Linea Antiqua Vol. II is more complete.
- GO 255 - 6: Index to Alliances in Prerogative Wills (Betham)
- GO 386: Index to the Funeral Entries
- GO 422 - 3: Index to arms registered at the Office
- GO 429: Eustace Index to Will Abstracts at the Genealogical Office. The published version in Analecta Hibernica, Vol. 17, is less extensive than the manuscript copy.
- GO 469: Index to Registered Pedigrees. This appears to be less complete than the version included in Hayes' Manuscript Sources. Attached to it is a typescript copy of the index to GO collection of pedigree rolls.
- GO 470: Index to Unregistered Pedigrees. This is the single most useful index in the Office, covering the Lord's Entries, the Betham pedigrees and many of the genealogists' pedigree collections. It is divided into three separate parts, and gives the descriptive titles in use before the adoption of the single GO numbering system. The flyleaf lists the manuscripts covered.
- GO 476: Numerical listing of GO manuscripts. Dating from the 1950s, and now inaccurate for the higher numbers. See also Hayes' Manuscript Sources for the Study of Irish Civilisation. This indexes the following: Registered Pedigrees, GO 800 822, Fisher Mss (GO 280-5).
