This summary of the valuation books for Drumsallagh is essentially to show the progression in occupancy - I tried to keep it in lot number initially, but there was a mass reorganisations/renumbering in 1879, then later, the combining of various lots. You should be able to follow the progression of who occupied a lot from 1855 to the early 1900s.

Notes:

1st Griffith's Valuation published in 1858 but were conducted in 1855-1957
The first "Revised Valuation" didn't occur until 1862, then every year thereafter until 1935
The "Date" column lists the year the revision was entered into the book

Selecting the highlighted entries in the Census column will take you to the 1901/1911 census information for the household
