    1. [NY-IRISH] New tithes and court records online
    2. Pat Connors
    3. I have just put online, on the Tipperary section of my website, more of the Tipperary Town district 1852 Petty Court Session records. I now have all of 1852 transcribed and online. My transcription includes the names of the defendants and the complainants with the places they lived. The rest of the court record includes offense and sentence and is very interesting and I recommend you take the time to look at the films with these records if you find a name that maybe your ancestor. Some were sentenced to 'hard labor' and 'lashings'. However, beware of the spellings of both names and placenames. The court clerk was spelling challenged plus I believe he has some of the civil parishes wrong. In all there are over 2,000 cases for the year. Also on the Tipperary section of my website, you will find the tithe applotment index for Mora Civil Parish in the South Riding. Many thanks to Paul Delahunty who contributed the transcription to the website. I am currently working on St Patricksrock Civil Parish tithes and they should go online right after the New Year. -- Pat Connors, Sacramento CA http://www.connorsgenealogy.com
