Description

This unique pre-Famine source for Irish history, genealogy, and geography research in County Longford contains complete data from the census substitute known as the Tithe Applotment Books (1823-1835). The Introduction orients the researcher to the format in which the names of County Longford's residents are presented. Part I consists of a full name (surname + given name) index, Part II contains a recapitulation of the Tithe records in the order collected by surveyors, and Part III includes 3 maps of County Longford's major land divisions plus 27 Civil Parish Maps of its townlands in a unique pre-Ordnance Survey format. The text also contains 2 historical document images and a microfilm reel locator index useful in finding original images of the survey via European Micropublishing Services and the Family History Library (LDS).
