CLARE

I also have Griffith's Valuations for 1855, this is formatted in an A to Z format with a pager per letter, there are over 32,000 names within the tables. Please choose the letter that the Surname you are searching for starts with below. Griffith's Primary Valuation took place throughout Ireland during the middle of the 19th Century and the valuation of Clare was published in 1855. It was a survey of land occupation to determine the amount of tax a landowner or occupier should pay towards the support of the Poor Law System.

This Parish Index to the valuation gives Forename, Surname, Town or Townland, Parish and Poor Law Union of individuals named in the published valuation. A person owning or leasing property in more than one townland will appear separately for each townland. The type of property held (i.e. house, garden, office or acreage of land), its valuation and map reference numbers are not included and the printed valuation will have to be consulted for this information.

 Please note some of these pages are huge (M is over 6,000 names), so may take some time to load:

Please note this is a work in progress, I have some information on all the Counties that are listed below, I just may not have had time to get them onto the website as yet. Feel free to contact me using the CONTACT page if there is a County listed for which I haven't got around to yet.
