One way would be to look at the handwritten tenure, house and field books that the surveyors did for the valuation. They are dated by the surveyor. They've been microfilmed by the Family History Library - 355 rolls in total. You can order the film out to a local Family History Center but the problem is that the records for the Barony of Lower Ormond are in multiple rolls with no detail of which roll has a specific parish. The good news is that the National Archives of Ireland is digitizing their copies and they supposedly will be on their website, perhaps even this year. There's no way of knowing when it will actually happen - the 1901 and 1911 census took an extra year. If you're willing to be patient, you'll eventually see them. If you want to try ordering the microfilm, email me and I can walk you through how to find them in the catalog.

Great question Tina and important to know! The "completion" date of Griffith's for Co Tipperary was29 June 1853 according to this (all the other counties too): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Griffith%27s_Valuation Teresa gave wonderful info on finding the "scribed (data collected)" date. Teresa & I went "to school" together! Way back in Sept 2001 we met at Trinity College Dublin for the 10 day 4th (& final?) Irish Genealogical Congress.
