The Civil Survey (1654-6) was an inventory of the proprietors and their property as it had been prior to the 1641 rebellion, with the proprietors identified by religion. The records of this survey have survived for most parts of ten counties. Edited by Robert Simington who oversaw their publication by the Irish Manuscripts Commission between 1931 and 1961.
