Re: [Bann Valley] Hearth Money Roll



Thanks for this information Barbara, I was hoping to check out the Hearth Tax Rolls but I won't bother now as my family was not one of the substantial people.
What about the Poll tax?  Has anyone seen them?
Not everyone had a will or they weren't filed, have been on that road to will searching myself.

Hi Bill,

I guess anything is possible. It's a long haul to do genealogy in Ireland.

It is my understanding that the Hearth Money Roll bascially lists those of the most substantial persons who could afford to pay tax. It is such a short list that it is pretty clear not everyone is on it or had a hearth.

Good luck!!
Barbara
