1659 Census

 

'Census' of Ireland: 1659

This was also compiled by Sir William Petty, was edited by Seamus Pender and published by the Dublin Stationary Office in 1939. It is not a true census, giving only the names of the titualodoes (those with title to land) and the total number of persons (English & Irish) resident in each townland. It arrangement is similar to that of the Civil Survey, but no descriptions of property are supplied. It is really only useful for sizeable landlords. The whole Census for Ireland is in one volume and is available in the Local Studies Department.
