 - Anna b: 4 May 1864; Family Search show a Death Registration for "Anne Legerwood Welsh" age 15 died 2nd Quarter 1879 ... I assume these are the same person ... note: her middle name is the same as her maternal grandmother's maiden name.
 

Her death is on irishgenealogy.ie https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/civil-search.jsp
Anna Legerwood Welsh died at Tullynagee on 7th? April 1879 aged 14 years.

Question: Is there a way to see the actual pages in the Tithe Books?


PRONI have digitised the Tithe Applotment books for Parishes in Northern Ireland (1823-1837). They are within the e-catalogue. If you can follow this procedure:

Tithe Applotments look-up method - PRONI

•   Go to e-catalogue https://apps.proni.gov.uk/eCatNI_IE/SearchPage.aspx 
•   When you reach the e-Catalogue, select the option to Browse on the top right-hand corner of the page. 
•   In the search box enter FIN/5, which will bring up a list of 58 entries in the FIN series. 
•   Click on FIN/5 and you will be brought to a page of 22 entries in the FIN/5 series.   
•   Click ‘Next’ for the second page.
•   Clicking takes you to the second page of results. Click FIN/5/A which will bring you to a list of 317 results. 
•   These are the Tithe Applotment Books for each parish, in alphabetical order. 
•   Click ‘Next’ several times to find the parish you are seeking (Comber)(FIN/5/A/82).
•   Click ‘View’ on the right.
•   Click ‘I Agree’ for Copying and Copyright Declaration.
•   A pdf image of the book for that parish will be downloaded. 
•   Be aware that these are very large files and may take minutes to download (several minutes) and don’t try to open or download them if you have limited data. 
•   When open, scroll down to amended page 13 (top right) – view Magherascouse tithe records (also on page 14).

Good news!  William Clarke and James Clarke are there. Not sure of the exact year date of the Tithe Applotment for their townland.
