This edition presents abstracted religious census data from the two national religious surveys conducted in Ireland during the 1760s: the first, during 1764 and 1765, by the hearth-money collectors, and the second, in the first half of 1766, by the parish ministers of the Established Church. This edition has identified surviving material from both surveys and abstracted the data and compiled it by administrative divisions into a consistent, standardised format. Colour distribution maps are included for each county. Researchers examining developments in eighteenth-century Irish society and social inquiry will find these sources extremely useful. No other pre-census source comes close to providing the wealth of demographic and social information contained in these censuses.
