Clara, Kilbride Tithe Applotment - 1826- Will lookup

[ChrisMcLain]

I obtained a large part of the Kilbride parish tithe applotment records for Clara townland, its about 200 plots of land with occupiers' names. 
I would have loved to make copies of the originals but the microfilm copy machine wasn't working so I wrote everything down on paper and will use it like a census for Clara.  Anyone looking for someone in this area, I have their name, property, and quantity of land.

No.   Land   Occupiers Names         Quantity
                  a.    r.    p.
481   Clara   Patrick Cassey         3a
      Henry McClain                 2r
      James Sheil                              2r
      William Spelman          1a
      John Connolly                               2r
      John Grady                                2r
      Michael Byrne         1a
      Edward Kelly, Esq.         8a    3r


It didn't copy over too well, but this is essentially the type of info I wrote down.
In Clara town it will state "house and garden", "house and yard" instead of land in acres/rods/perches.

Some of my Ancestors are from slightly to the east of that area on the 1840s - Lemaghan / Leabeg & Belair. If you have a minute could you see if any were based (or originated) in the Kilbride Civil Parish... the surnames are Cathcart & Wilson


thanks,

Line 651...
John Wilson....House and plot....Main Street, Clara town
 
There is a John Carty with a house on Main st.  and a James Carty with a house on New Street also but no Cathcarts.

I wish the library microfilm machine was working, I would've copied the entire parish!

Shane, for your records, there's also a "Mrs. Wilson" with a house and garden on Stirabout Row that I passed over.  Next to the entry it has "Brewery".  I'm not sure if the house was in a brewery or it was next to one.

thanks for the additional data..

...I've noted it with the all the other clues. You never know when they all come together.
