1756
Commission of Array for County Louth
The
following names are taken from document reference number SP66/B/14 in the Public
Records Office, Kew, England.
The Commission of
Array was held nationwide in September of 1756. As this was the era of the Penal
Laws, Roman Catholics were not permitted to bear arms. Consequently, the names
in the following list can be assumed to be members of the Protestant faith. The
Commission was held to ascertain the number of eligible men available to protect
the country and to train these men in the use of firearms etc.

County Louth in 1745' in JCLAHS Vol. XXIV No 3, 1999
