1831 of the Parishes of Innistiogue and Dysertmoon

[audbr]

Hi Can anyone help
In looking at the Rootsireland website for county Kilkenny it suggests that parts of the 1831 census  exist for the parishes of Innistiogue and Dysartmoon. When I look at the "National Archives of Ireland" website for the 1831 census; it only allows a search for the counties of Antrim and Londonderry and there is no mention of county Kilkenny!!!

Do parts of the 1831 census for county Kilkenny survive?
If  parts survive is there a list anywhere of the surnames that are included in the surviving parts?
I am interested in the surname Audley, which is frequently recorded as Adley, Addley, Aidley as well as miss-transcriptions such as Andley
The surname Audley is recorded in the 1826 Tithe Applotment Books & the 1850 Griffith's Valuation  in the Innistiogue and Dysartmoon parishes, so hopefully they should be recorded in  the 1831 census.

Unfortunately to search the roorsireland website I have to input both a Surname and a first name.
Can anybody:
Confirm that parts of the 1831 census for county Kilkenny exist?
Does it contain surnames?
Is there a list of surnames it contains?
Is there any way it can be searched by surname only?
Regards
Brian Audley

According to Tracing Your Irish Ancestors by John Grenham (1992)- sometimes books are better than the internet  -
Extracts from 1831 census parishes of Aglish, Clonmore, Kilmacow, Polcrone, Rathkyran, Tybroughney are in [Genealogical Office] GO 684 (Walsh-Kelly notebooks)

See here to read the page yourself.

Googling 1831 census kilkenny also brings up some details- just 2 examples-

Hi aghadowey,

Thanks for your reply.
The sources that you suggest appear to be at odds with the Killkenny Rootsireland website
and I do not understand why.

Some detail here re: Kilkenny Rootsireland 1831 census records give the impression that the listing they show under their resources may not be as complete as one would expect.

Hi Aghadowey,
Many thanks for your message. I agree with your comment the the Kilkenny Rootsireland 1831 census records give the impression that the listing they show under their resources may not be as complete as one would expect.

There are a couple of Audley headstones in The Rower graveyard which is a few miles from Inistiogue.

No there won't be a mention of Kilkenny on "National Archives of Ireland"  as they are only extracts, not actual Census forms.

Hi Jack 2227 & hallmark,

Jack 2227 - Thanks for the photographs of the graves at the Rower.  I already have photographs and transcriptions of the gravestones at the Rower. I was hoping that if some of the 1831 census survives for the parishes of Inistiogue and Dysertmoon then it may have reference to the Audley Family in them.
hallmark - Sorry I do not understand your comment. If the 'National Archives of Ireland' in Dublin has extracts from the 1831 census of Antrim and Londonderry I do not understand why it does not have extracts from the 1831 census of Kilkenny if any exist

Brian

Before so many of the census records were destroyed various copies (extracts) had been made over the years and it sounds as though the Kilkenny records are copies of the returns.
