West Cork Genealogy - the Tithe Applotments & Other Land Records


Listen Later

Margaret and Terri discuss the background to the Tithe placed on land in the 1823s and examine the outcome of this tax as well as utilising these records for genealogy information. Margaret

goes on to discuss the value of other miscellaneous land records from around that period - the local Wrixon-Becher Estate records, the Landed Estates website, the Register of Deeds and the Flax Rolls - as genealogical sources.
