I wanted to be better able to make sense of early 1600s and 1700s land transactions in Co. Cavan, so I started with land units as described in Coote. [SOURCE: List of the original Patentees of Cavan, as reported by Pynnar, in his Survey of Ulster, made anno dominie 1618—19.  SOURCE: Statistical Survey of the County of Cavan. Sir Charles Coote, Bart. Graisberry and Campbell. 1802].
SEE ALSO: Description of original Patentees of Cavan
Sharon Oddie Brown. May 20, 2010
Updated May 21, 2010 - Thanks to the scholarship of Shane Anderson. More to come, I suspect.

A useful map can be seen at Plantation at Co. Cavan
There are also some good maps in Duffy, P.J. (1995) Perspectives on the making of the Cavan landscape. In: Cavan: essays on the history of an Irish county.Irish Academic Press, Dublin, pp. 14-36. ISBN 0-7165-2554-2 SEE: Link to Duffy article
And as well, The confiscation of Ulster, in the reign of James the first, etc. by Thomas Mac-Nevin, 1846
Another recommended book is George Hill's excellent work An historical account of the plantation in Ulster 1608-1620 Belfast, 1877.

 

 

 

The Precincts of Co. Cavan

This is my hokey little map that helps me make sense of this.
1) Clanchie aka Clankee
2) Castlerabin aka Castleraghen aka Castlerahan
3)Tullaghgarvy aka Tullygarry aka Tullygarvey
4) Loughtee aka Upper Loughtee and Lower Loughtee
5) Clonemahown aka Clanmahon
6)Tullaghconche aka Tullyhunco
7)Tullaha aka Tullyhaw

 

 NOTE: In the table beneath, when I say “Guess at current” the emphasis should be on the word “guess”. I am no expert, though I invite input in the hopes that together we can eventually get closer to the truth.
