Tithe Applotment Book These are taxation records arranged by civil parish. Those for Brigown date from December, 1831. For Mullberry Lane, Mitchelstown we find Thomas Condon holding 12 perches- a large garden- and paying three shillings annually. Researched with Pollardstown lead gave one James Maher holding 46 acres there. An adjacent holding was that of Thomas Condon, 22 acres.
The Griffith's Valuation of 1852 gave James Maher as farming 101 acres as tenant of the Earl of Kingston. Value indicates a substantial farmhouse and farm outbuildings.



Thomas Martin Condon died at his home 116 Cutter Street at the age of 60. His name appears as an international figure through his attempts to obtain release of his son Edward Condon, who was held by the English in Portland Prison as a Fenian conspirator. The son had been a prisoner then for over eight years and his fathers efforts had been without avail. (from a newspaper transcript found in his grandsons wallet many years later)
