I feel obligated to warn you about the Griffith's Valuation Index, whether you have the cd, as I do, or use the version at John Hayes' website. I can only attest to County Tipperary because I have done much research in that county and in most of the civil parishes the index doesn't list the surnames that start from A to L, so if you are looking for Connors in County Tipperary, you probably won't find it listed. So, while most of the index is certainly accurate, if you don't find your surname in it, don't give up. The index on the OriginsNetwork program is accurate, however, it is a subscription site. Since I am a member I will do a lookup for you if the surname begins with M to Z, you are searching in Co Tipperary and you write me off line. I have time today and tomorrow only. -- Pat Connors, currently visiting Albany NY http://www.connorsgenealogy.com
