* Ireland Householder's Index, County Antrim
(Database Online - Ancestry.com) :
With no complete census for Ireland or Northern Ireland
prior to 1901, researchers of Irish ancestors are left with
the few local censuses available or the title applotment
books, which can be used for most of the country. The
latter of these two record sources have been combined into
a printed index entitled: Index of Surnames of Householders à
in Griffith's Primary Valuation and the Tithe Applotment
Books, commonly called the Householders Index. This
database is a re-index of the original records used to
produce the original Householders Index. Each record
provides the name of householder and town of residence. The
records in this database currently only cover County Antrim
in Northern Ireland. It provides the names of about 10,000
persons.
This is one database among thousands available to
Ancestry.com subscribers.

* American Citizens, British Slaves: Yankee Political
Prisoners in an Australian Penal Colony, 1839-1850
(Book - Amazon.com) : American Citizens, British Slaves
tells the strange story of almost a hundred United States
citizens who were transported to Van Diemen's Land
(Tasmania) in 1839-40. As members of the Patriot Army that
had conducted border raids into the colony of Upper Canada
in 1838, they saw themselves as courageous republican
activists. Instead of heroic liberators, they became
political prisoners of Her Majesty's government.
