I'm not sure if I understand the question. By estate do you mean one of the
large private landholdings? they didn't really own the parishes although in
some cases in the Church of Ireland a very large land owner might be
appointed impropriator, in which case he would take the tithes for himself
and pay the vicar a salary. But this was not that common and of course never
applied to the catholic church. Only a small number of parishes would have
been dominated by a large estate in that way.

I you want the names of the local landlords I suggest you check Griffiths
valuation. The CD index will not give it to you but microfilm copies
available through the LDS will.
