I have a page from Vol. 1 of TAB for Ballyfeeny Townland.<br>I can make out the first five column headings - Townland - Landholders<br>Names - 1st Quality - 2nd quality - 3rd Quality.<br>But the final five columns are illegible. I'd appreciate anyone having a nice 'clean' photocopy of a TAB page telling me the column titles?<p>Thanks<p>Peter

Peter,<p>I am having the same trouble as you. Found what looks like my ancestors in the TAB in the townland of Aghlin, Parish Oughteragh, but can not read the headings. Does anyone know if the number of acres of land is listed somewhere in the TAB? Is it a combination of the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Quality?<p>Don McGovern

Going back to my pre-metric National School days I seem to recall there were 4 roods to the acre, 40 perch to the rood <br>and 30 1/4 square yards to the perch.
