Cathy,

What exactly is this book, and where would one find it? I'd never heard of
the Orrey Rent Roll. My family came to Limerick (Kilmallock area) about
1660 -- Mount Blakeney, Thomastown.

Could you possibly check to see if they are listed? Or is there even an
index?

Thanks for posting this! Very interesting.

Rhonda
