Griffiths and VAL/2 series
« on: Thursday 15 February 18 01:36 GMT (UK) »
Hello, I have worked on Griffiths online and the Valuation Revisions - very useful. But is it possible to see online the PRONI records for:

VAL/2/B Field Books - see information in more detail (also A, C, D)
VAL/2/B/5/24B and 24C for Tamlaght Finlagan?

Or do you need to visit PRONI in Belfast or pay a researcher to look?

Thankyou

Is this what you are looking for?

On the Census website  http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/

Hallmark, thankyou very much. I have clicked on all the options from the link but cannot find the Book option you show on the right side of the screen print. Nor get to the page you show in the screen print.

Can you, please, explain the path to get to it.

Thankyou, Marilyn

Thankyou, both. I have played around with which boxes to complete and spellings - Carrowreagh or Carryreagh, Keenaught or Kennaught etc, and have some results. It can be confusing how many boxes you actually need to complete to get a result.

I was wondering if more of the VAL/2/B items on PRONI apart from Field Books were accessible on line - 107 items including below and then the sub results of A B C D

VAL   Valuation Records
-      VAL/2   Griffith Valuation
[1 - 4]      
PRONI Reference   Title                        Date(s)        
VAL/2/A            Six Inch Map Series       1856-1862      
VAL/2/B              Field Books               1853-1864      
VAL/2/C              Published Lists               1862      
VAL/2/D              Town Plans               1859-1895   

And any of VAL/1 to VAL/22 and sub results?

E.G.  VAL/2/B/5/24B and 24C for Tamlaght Finlagan?  And VAL/2/A consists of 82 sub results with maps for all the Parishes of Co Londonderry.

Is what is on PRONI on very limited with it's availability online so that you either have to go to PRONI or pay a researcher to go for you?
