One of the principle topics studied by members of The Augustan Society, Inc., is genealogy, and a significant subset of that topic, especially for American genealogists, is Irish genealogy and immigration. Thus it is appropriate for the Society to include an '''Irish Genealogy Study Group'''.
Presently inactive, this group was once a committee large enough to publish it's own magazine, ''[[Irish-American Genealogist|The Irish-American Genealogist]]''. The This group is presently dormant, but may be revived at the request of by any interested Memberby petition to the [[Dean of Studies]].
The first task of such a revived group would be to create a Charter to define the scope of their studies, especially as the term "Irish" is subject to some interpretation, not to mention being dependent upon the year studied.
