Grand Juries

Clare County Archives contains a collection of forty-two volumes of grand jury presentments dating from 1784 to 1792, and 1870 to 1900. In addition, the archives holds letters and circulars to the grand jury, and a volume listing the names of judges, sheriffs and grand jury members for the spring and summer meetings in Clare from 1732 to 1882. This body of material is a valuable source for local history research.

The Grand Jury collection is available online on the
Digital Repository of Ireland.
