Irish Origins: Griffith's Valuation

clipped from www.originsnetwork.com Irish Origins is the most authentic source for Irish genealogy information online, featuring the definitive version of Griffith's Primary Valuation of Ireland records and maps, the most important Irish genealogy research source prior to the 20th century, as well as the one-of-a-kind Irish Wills Index (1484-1858), the 1851 Dublin City Census, Irish Royal Garrison Artillery Records, and our new Irish Origins Library, all accessible via a free Irish name search. clipped from www.originsnetwork.com The 1831 Tithe Defaulters index contains over 29,000 names of people who refused to pay their tithe and so started the Tithe War. The people most affected by the Tithe War are precisely those most affected by emigration and the famine in the next generation. This unique record of names, addresses and occupations provides an important genealogical source for Ireland, especially given the near total destruction of the 1831 census.
