Hi Barbara, most here are researching in Ireland in the 1700s. Ask on any other Irish list to find those with more 20th century expertise, though maybe we can assist. I'm not sure what you are looking at: the page or an index. If you read here: http://www.proni.gov.uk/records/deeds.htm regarding the names index it says: "From 1833, the details to be extracted to find the relevant information in the Transcript and Abstract books are: the year of registration; the number of the file and volumes of the Transcript book." It further says: "When you locate an entry which interests you, in either index, an index number will lead you to the book in which the memorial has been copied. " Are you looking at the index number? Again not knowing if you are looking at and index or the deed book itself makes it hard to give you an answer....Back in the 1700s where I'm usually looking I'm usually focused on thinking "Good God! Is this English handwriting or Martian?" <grin>. The grantee name was recorded in the deed and in the grantee index. You can download a free guide from LDS www.familysearch.org .
