Hearth Money Rolls - Ballywilliam

  

In the Hearth Money Rolls 1665
The following names were recorded in Ballywilliam townland (Ballywilliam).

Mortagh	Bryen
Dermott	Hogane

There seems to be 2nd return or maybe an add-on in 1666-67

Recorded are

Mort Bryan

Dermott Hogan

Generally the first name in a townland seems to be the most important landowner. At least that is my impression.
Mortagh O’Brien and Dermot Hogan are common to both lists and both Gaelic surnames.

The next available "Census" for the area is the Tithe Appointment Books 1824 – I only have a scan of this from the Mikie Joy archive.

So O’Briens and Hogans do carry on in the townland.

In the later Griffiths valuation (See pictures) – O’Brien and Hogan are not recorded

In 1901
