Ireland, Encumbered Estates, 1850-1885
The Encumbered Estates' Court was established to facilitate the sale of Irish estates whose owners were unable to meet their obligations because of the Great Famine, regardless of whether the land was entailed. Included in these 494,616 records from The National Archives of Ireland are the names of the sellers, tenants names of "three lives" people establishing the term of a lease, even previous tenants of the land providing an invaluable resource, particularly as tenant farmers were often among the poorest in Irish society. This may be one of the rare record sets that include their details.
