Dear Anne re:Griffiths Revisions for Colman Flaherty Bungowla I think it's quite straightforward. Colman dies c 1888 and "widow" is written in above his crossed out name. This is later amended to include her full name - Bridget,in 1890. I haven't gone in to too much detail about the different copies of the Revisions,who got them ,how often, as it's quite complicated and not really necessary to use them. Amendments were not made that often - straightforward changes such as this one would have been written in at the local level ,usually when provided with the info by the person concerned. They were updated by a "reviser" at maybe 5 year intervals,maybe 10. Some Unions were better than others at keeping tabs on changes. In this case,they would have been notified of Colman's death, by the lessor's agent,probably. Bridget's name would have been added when the assessor came around on his check a year or so later. The Valuation copy you got has been coloured to correspond to those two changes. The dates are not to be taken as gospel,,just indicators that something of importance happened to that family around that time. Bridget seems to have died about 1907- or at least,her name is taken off the record. The house passes to Margaret Flaherty,who I think is her daughter -in-law. What happens to her son Michael? Is he dead as well? Cathy
