Hearth Money Rolls - Ballyvaughan

 

By Derek Ryan

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

Edmund

Hogane

John

Killane

Hugh

Diggin


There is no return in 1666-67


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

Here we have Hogan and two other Gaelic sounding surnames, probably Killane & Duggan.

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.

Patrick Gleeson

William Gleeson

Ned Gleeson

Patrick Cuooney?

So no Hearth Money Roll names.


In the later Griffiths valuation (See pictures) – Again no Hearth Money Roll names.


In 1901

In 1911

No Hearth Money Roll names reappear.


My own analysis of the rolls highlighting the Arra records.
