A note : The Griffiths Primary Valuation was originally hand written, what you see here comes from a typed up copy - and as with all transcriptions mistakes may have been made. Quite often, transcribers do not leave spellings as they see them but as how they know them to be spelled, quite often, the writing on original manuscripts can be difficult to read and sometimes, what you think you see is not actually what is written.

So, bearing these things in mind and considering the names as presented in the Griffiths for this parish - why is it that Thomas Shattan is listed as Thomas Shattan, sen. - there is only one listing for a Thomas Shattan in this parish, and senior and junior (sen., jun.) are usually listed after a name when there is another person of the same surname and first name. Is it possible that what the transcriber read as Shattan was in fact Stratton or Strattan? There is a man called Thomas Stratton listed a number of times.

Things to consider : The surnames Sheveland and Shovelin : Traynor and Treanor : Lea and Lee - it is very possible that different people filled out different sections of the original Griffiths taken in the field, and that each person spelled each surname differently and simply wrote as they themselves spelled it. The result being, that it looks like there are people with variations on the spelling of a surname, while in fact, there may only be one person whose surname was spelled differently by different note-takers or transcribers

Some vacant properties. I have not included the names of those Immediate lessors who leased properties that were occupied in the same townland

Occupier - Surname & Name	Immediate lessor - Surname & Name	Townland

Formatting of the Index

My tables are sorted alphabetically by Occupiers' name - any Immediate Lessor may be listed numerous times throughout a parish. Immediate Lessor names are not sorted alphebetically

In those instances when a person is listed twice in the same townland and the Immediate lessor was the same for each entry I have the occupiers name once and indicated how many times that name occurs in that townland beside it.

I have excluded the name of Immediate Lessors of Vacant properties when that person was already listed as being an Immediate Lessor in the same townland. The names of Immediate Lessors of vacant properties are included if that person was not listed as an Immediate Occupier previously in that townland.

e.g in the following situation:(example not from this parish)

Occupier - Surname & Name	Immediate lessor - Surname & Name	Townland
Bowe John Bowe John Brennan Michael Brennan Michael	Pope Letitia, Mrs. Pope Letitia, Mrs. Trench Fredk. F., Rev. Trench Fredk. F., Rev.	Kellyville Kellyville Ballintlea Ballintlea

A person called John Bowe leased two sets of properties from Mrs. Letita Pope in the same townland -Kellyville.

A person called Michael Brennan leased two sets of properties from Rev. Fredk(Frederick) Trench in Ballintlea.

I indicate that a person leased more than one property from a particular 'Imiade lessor' in a particular townland by putting an x and a number behind the first name. In this case, my entries for these two people will be as follows:

Occupier - Surname & Name	Immediate lessor - Surname & Name	Townland
Bowe John x 2 Brennan Michael x 2	Pope Letitia, Mrs. Trench Fredk. F., Rev.	Kellyville Ballintlea

The Immediate Lessor is the person who owns or leases the property from the Landholder. The Occupier is the person who leases the land from the Immediate Lessor. The Occupier, in turn, may sub-let part of the property that they are listed as being the Occupier of, in which case, their name is then listed in the Immediate Lessor column. You need to see the original pages of the Griffiths Valuation which lists the type of property being leased.

See Griffiths Valuation for a more detailed explanation
