    1. [COTIPPERARY] Question about Pender's census, 1659
    2. Phil Buckley
    3. Question 1: In Pender's census of 1659, at the end of each barony's tabulation, is a list of the most frequently found surnames within the barony. Does anyone know if the frequency numbers refer to number of families or to number of persons? The difference could be significant. Example: 21 families, or 21 persons divided among 3 families averaging 7 people each. Question 2: Having traced my Buckley or "Boughilly" ancestors from the 1911 and 1901 Irish census back in time through Griffith's valuation of 1850, the Tithe Applotments of 1827, the Religious Census of 1766, and Pender's census of 1659, where does one go to trace them even further back it time? Is it possible? Phil Buckley, Bozeman, Montana
