Kildavnet Freeholders List
<p>A unique Census Substitute for the townland of Carrickkildavnet aka Kildavnet in 1829. This Freeholders List can provide useful information about those who held enough land to register to vote. While the smaller tenant farmers who suffered most during the Great Famine won't appear on this list, there may be a few surprises included here (that didn't appear on Tithe applotment records). These could be partners on a freehold lease. Can you find your ancestor's name below?</p>

Patrick Henry O'Melia
<p>Patrick was supposedly born 3/17/1839. However, I have been told that many children who did not know their birthdates used St. Patrick's Day. Patrick supposedly emigrated to Canada or the U.S. when he was age 7. His father passed away when he was age 3 and his mother passed away either in crossing of the Atlantic Ocean or shortly after arrival in Canada or the U.S.</p>
