Hearth Money Rolls - Clonsingle

 


In the Hearth Money Rolls 1665

The following names were recorded in Clonsingle townland (Clonsaigle).

Richard

Shuttey

 

There was no 1666-7 return.

Generally the first name in a townland seems to be the most important landowner. At least that is my impression.

So with only one name, he must also be the most important. However it is does sound like an English surname.

There is the 1766 census available for the general area but unless someone has a very distinct surname it is nearly impossible to make any kind of connection.

1766 Census for Kilnarath.xlsx 

There is no Shuttey in that census.

The next available "Census" for the area is the Tithe Appointment Books 1827.

There are no HMR surnames.

There is also an 1835 census available for the Parishes of Newport and Birdhill (transcribed by Hugh Sweeney of Newport Historical & Archaeological Society in Newport News).

No Shuttey but lots of interesting names.

Robert J. Young Esq.

Robert Lee

John Sullivan

John Ryan

Widow Sweeney

John Guinane

Daniel Healy

Thomas Coffey

John Hanly

Daniel Ryan

Daniel Coffey (Roe)

John Fitzgerald

Jeremiah Ryan (Granny)

Widow Ryan (Patrick)

Patrick Ryan (Patcy)

Patrick Fitzgerald

Widow Ryan (Michael Moon?)

 

In the later Griffiths valuation (see pictures); no HMR surnames carry through.


The 1901 Census

https://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Tipperary/Newport/Clonsingle/

No HMR names.


And 1911 Census

https://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Tipperary/Newport/Clonsingle/

Again no HMR names.

As a later exercise will also try and look at the Civil Survey – Transplantation records – Hearth Money Rolls but I think I will keep that as a separate exercise.

 

My own analysis of the rolls highlighting the Owney records.
