Minmore Townland ...Hopkins and Burke

I am tracing the lineage of the Hopkins and Burke families who held land at Minmore from 1777.

DOES ANYONE HAVE ACCESS TO THE FITZWILLIAM ESTATE LIST OF OCCUPIERS FOR 1827?

Does it show the Burkes?

Similarly the Tithes of c1823 show the Burkes paying Tithes on only about 11 acres when their original lease was for about73 acres.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

The Tithe Records for the townland of Minmore & Ballynocker - Parish of Moyadown have the surnames Hopkins and Bourke in 1837. There are a number of years missing in the 1820's. If you contact the National Archives  query@nationalarchives.ie  they may confirm if the records exist.

The Archives have records of the Fitzwilliam Estate, but you will need to attend there to examine them.
