    1. [N-E-IRISH] County Limerick Tithe Defaulters
    2. Pat Connors
    3. A number of years ago, I ran across an Irish Genealogists' Journal from 1990 at my local Family History Center. In it I found a number of County Limerick records including some of the Tithe Defaulters (1831) as transcribed from the National Archives records by Stephen McCormac (now available on cd at Ancestry). At the time, I copied the names, townlands and civil parishes and recently I came across my transcribed work. It covers some of the civil parishes in the baronies of Clanwilliam, Coonagh and Smallcounty. Today, I put each civil parish into a table and sorted it by surname and got them online. You can find them on the County Limerick section of my website (url under my name), under Land Records. These can be useful when trying to track your family between the Tithe Applotments and the Griffith's Valuation. I wish I had more. I also updated the Limerick Surname Registries so if you submitted a name in the last couple of months, please check it for accuracy. -- Pat Connors, Sacramento CA http://www.connorsgenealogy.com
