Introduction Probably the best source of Irish genealogical information in the late 18th and early to mid-19th century are church records. The data below is taken largely from parish records copied for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Records are shown from the earliest available until the 1860's when public vital statistic records begin. While the Griffiths Valuation (1848-1864) is a comprehensive list of households, it has a significant weakness. Griffiths only lists household heads. Thus, in Griffiths we have a snap shot which shows in most cases, only the father, but not the wife or children. On the other hand, church records show husbands, wives and children. An examination of the list below indicates that the number of MacDermot Roe households peaked in the mid-19th century at about 40. The number of households shown in parish records is greater than the number shown in Griffiths Valuation. This is probably due to the fact that parish priests were more likely to indicate the appellation than the government clerks of Griffiths Valuation who were not as close to the community. The number of McDermott Roe households is a little more than double the number shown in the 1617 lease of Brian MacDermot of the Rock. See page , MacDermot of Moylurg, Sir Dermot MacDermot, pages 458-464. However, it reflects a steep decline in the percentage of MacDermott households who used the appellation - from close to one half in 1617 to only about 6 percent in the mid-19th century. Due to the suppression of Roman Catholicism in Ireland, Roman Catholic parish records do not exist in Ireland until the late 18th century. The first parish records appear in towns such as Boyle with the more remote parishes starting records later. All parishes are in County Roscommon unless otherwise noted.
