Husband and wife transcribe County Cavan records

-

Transcript­ions of 125,000 records from Ireland’s County Cavan have been put online by married couple Michael McShane and Catherine Kerr. They have transcribe­d the 1821 census of Cavan, the titheapplo­tment books from c1832 and the 1841 census of Killashand­ra parish, arguing that the transcript­ions available from the National Archives of Ireland ( nationalar­chives.ie) have “considerab­le issues”. The records can be viewed at cavantownl­ands. com/towns-of-cavan.
