Description (What the record is about)
-
In Andrew Barrett's woods, the farthest part not above two miles from the waterside, 1,000 trees. In Owen Cormock's, two miles from the river, 500. In the widow Barrett's and Samuel Barrett's, two miles from the river, 700. In William Halie's, three miles from the river, 200. In Walter Coppinger's, three miles from the river, 50. In Cormocke's, of the Blarny, 1,000.
In all, 3,450 trees.
In Desmond, the markers being not yet returned, I estimate them some 5,000. Mr. Beecher has undertaken for all his woods that there shall be none felled, but numbered as they now stand, of which there shall be disposed to his Majesty's use any proportion thought fit.
Mr. Beecher's woods stand upon or near the river of Kinsale.
For the river of Youghall more.
Concerning such Richard Rogh's, I received your directions to leave them unmarked, in respect he had undertaken there should be a proportion at all times answered thereout.
This is a true return as well of the markers employed, of as many trees as could conveniently be marked out of all the aforesaid woods, as appears under their hands unto me as of the rest, &c. As witness my hand, this 29th Sept. 1611. Rich. Moryson.
Endorsed.
