McAninch in 1800's Ulster, Tithe Applotment and Griffiths Valuation

[forward reference: cf. A Look at the Mc(ac)A/I/Ninch Surnames, MFHN, Vol. V, No. 2, May 1997, pg.1997-11; note added April 1999 /fm]

 

The "Irish Householder's Index" is a combined index to two tax records of the early 19th‑century, microfilmed by The National Library of Ireland --

1. the Tithe Applotment Books, circa 1820's, Tithe to support the King's official Church of Ireland (Anglican Church, Church of England), and

2. Griffiths "Valuation of Tenements", date varies by County, 1848-1864

 

After examining these records, variations of our surname are found only at the northern edge of the island of Ireland, directly across the water (about 20-30 miles) from Scotland, in Counties Antrim and Londonderry, in the coastal bog country around Coleraine, where the county line runs to the sea, and east, along the Antrim coast (Bushmills, Glenarm, Larne).
