[4] Update: October 2005: "The Irish at Home and Abroad" ceased publication at the end of 1999,

and their website (www.IHAonline.com) is no longer available (that url now belongs to a travel site).

"The Irish at Home and Abroad", ISSN 1082-5592, was a quarterly magazine, published 1993-1999,

edited by Dwight A. Radford and Kyle J. Betit, USPS PO Box 521806, Salt Lake City, Utah 84152.

 

The 1803 agricultural survey was cited in the "County Antrim" article by Kyle J. Betit, co-editor

[The Irish at Home & Abroad, vol. 5 no. 4 (4th Quarter 1998), pg.186] --

 

"1803: Agricultural survey of fourteen parishes in northern Co. Antrim:

Armoy, Ballintoy, Ballymoney, Ballyrashane, Ballywillin, Billy, Culfreightrin, Derrykeighan,

Dunluce, Grange of Drumtaullagh, Kilraghts, Loughguile, Ramoan, and Rathlin. At National

Archives, in Official Papers, Second Series (OP153/103). The survey was prompted by fear of an

invasion by France, and served as a listing for yeomanry service. Information includes individuals'

names (7,336 total), townlands, civil parishes; inventory of livestock, agricultural equipment and

crop/stores; occupations for a minority of individuals. In some parishes family members of military

age are listed together with the principal householder. Mr. Paddy Walsh has compiled a database

index with a copy at the National Archives." [National Archives of Ireland, Dublin, Ireland]

 

Of course, the complete database itself was never online; their website did allow you to search the

database, but their website is no longer available today [October 2005]. Unfortunately, some web

pages today still advertise links to the now-defunct search page [but, there is nothing there], and

the Ulster Historical Foundation still claims access to the index, for current Guild members only

[www.ulsterancestry.co.uk/database.php?filename=db_censusantrim1803]. The National Archives

of Ireland do not specifically identify the 1803 agricultural survey online [http://www.oasis.gov.ie/

      culture_and_recreation/arts_and_culture/cultural_institutions/national_archives_of_ireland.html].
