Griffiths Primary Valuation was compiled and published between 1848 and 1864. It lists every landholder and every householder in Ireland and is arranged by county, barony, poor law union, civil parish and townland. If an ancestor owned or leased land, they will have been listed here. To help us perform a search of the records, we need the following information - Surname, Forename and Townland/County. Information on other members of the family can ensure finding the correct records.
Ordnance Survey maps from the 1850s (known as townland maps) were marked with the location of each landholding that was surveyed. When the correct landholding is found, this townland map will show where it was located and its surroundings as it was then. It is also possible to see who inherited the land or owned it afterwards.
Genealogy Tip: If you are unsure of the spelling of a townland, or you want to know where the townland is, use the Irish Placename Search facility.
