The following article is from Eastman’s Online Genealogy Newsletter and is copyright 2002 by Richard W. Eastman. It is re-published here with the permission of the author. The following is an announcement from Origins.net and Eneclann Ltd.: Origins.net (http://www.origins.net) and Eneclann Ltd (http://www.eneclann.ie/), in association with the National Library of Ireland, is to make the complete Griffith’s Valuation of Ireland available on the world-wide web. This monumental 19th century work is a primary source of information for family history researchers, and is used as an invaluable substitute for the Irish censuses, which were destroyed when the Public Record Office was burned down in 1922. The new web service, to be launched early next year, will be the definitive resource for Griffith’s Valuation. All available copies of the Valuation – which was published in several versions at different times between 1847 and 1864 – will be indexed and digital images of the source publications made available on the web site. The selection of the original documents has been made with the assistance of George Handran, a world expert on Griffith’s work. About Griffith’s Valuation Between 1847 and 1864 the Valuation Office, under the direction of Richard Griffith, carried out the first systematic valuation of property holdings in Ireland. It contained information concerning over one million people, from the smallest farmer to the largest landlord. Because most of the census records for the nineteenth century were destroyed in 1922, when the Public Records Office was burned down, the Griffith Valuation represents the most comprehensive survey of households available for the period. For this reason, it is a principal tool of genealogists and local historians. Unlike previous attempts to index or publish Griffith’s Valuation, this will be the first time the entire survey has been published since it was originally issued in the 19th century. This edition will contain all the revisions and amended versions that were published over the 17 years it took to complete the valuation. No library in any country in the world, including Ireland, has a full set of the Griffith Valuation. So for the first time, users of the new web edition can be sure that they have all the source material at hand in one place. They will be able to search a complete database of personal and place names, and then access scanned images of the original published pages. About the National Library of Ireland The National Library of Ireland has just celebrated the 125th anniversary of its foundation. As the library of record for Ireland, the National Library aims to collect, preserve and make accessible materials on or relating to Ireland, whether published in Ireland or abroad, and a supporting reference collection. The Library's current collection of some six million items constitutes probably the most outstanding collection of Irish documentary material in the world, an invaluable representation of Irish history and heritage. The National Library has long been one of the key centres for family history research in Ireland. The Library's Genealogy Service - an expert service staffed by a panel of professional genealogists, together with experienced Library staff – is designed with the specific needs of family history researchers in mind. Among the key sources consulted by genealogists in the Library are microfilms of Catholic parish registers, trade and social directories, newspapers, and rentals and other records of the former landed estates. These records, and many other sources used for family history research, will continue to be freely available to personal callers to the Library and, in many instances, use of these records will be greatly facilitated by free on-site access to the new Griffith’s index.

On the marriage certificate of my paternal grandparents, William & Mary Ellen Power, dated 4th November 1884, the address of my paternal great-grandparents [parents of William], Matthew and Ellen Power was given as "Crooke Disp.". I know where Crooke is both in terms of the village and also in wider terms of the Parish. What does "Disp" mean? Can anybody help? It could be an misreading of old writing. Thanks Dr Con Power

I want to get a death certificate for a John Power who died between 1910 and 1920 in Tramore in County Waterford. I have eliminated all but 5 John Power entries in the quarterly index for those years. I don't want to spend the time and/or money to get all 5 from the GRO in Dublin. Are there any other avenues I can pursue to get the full death certificates for those 5 John Power entries? Thank you for the help, Gerry Duffy Palos Park, IL

Dolores, I am researching Margaret English born about 1850 who married William Lynch born 1845 in Waterford. I know they lived in Stradbally, County Waterford after their marriage. Sound familiar? I don't know who Margaritas parents are. Cheryl sedorp@aol.com

Hi Con, Perhaps Disp. is short for Dispensary. Maybe one of your relatives was a Doctor, or the Doctor's address may appear beacuse he assisted in the birth of one of your relatives. Just a thought.

Hi Don, I wasn't sure what this was so I took a look. It seems that the Familysearch.org website is making the 1880 American and 1881 Canadian censuses available as a part of Family History month. These are also on CD for purchase. Also available the 1881 British Census. Thanks for letting us know Don!
