This rental of 63 Tenants in the Trant estate in Dingle 1791-1792, is a copy of the transcription by Jim Ryan of Flyleaf Press  and published on AncestorNetwork

‘This rental of 63 tenants in the Dingle area of County Kerry is in the Trant Papers in the National Library of Ireland collection. The Trant family were originally from this area of Co. Kerry but moved in the early 1800s to an estate in Dovea, Co. Tipperary.  They continued to own land  in Kerry until the 1820s.  Information on the Trant family and their estates is in the Landed Estates Database. The tenant names listed below are extracted from several loose-page rentals relating to the Trant Kerry holdings in 1791/92:  the NLI references to these items are Ms 31,561 Items 15 and Ms 31,561 Item 16.  The Trant family also had holdings in several other counties at this time.    The Kerry properties are indicated in the documents as then being the property of William Trant, a minor.  Most of the locations mentioned are townlands in civil parishes on the western end of the Dingle Peninsula, i.e. Kilmalkedar, Garfinny, Dingle and Ventry (all in the Barony of Corkaguiny).  Others could not be identified with any certainty. The holding sizes are very varied, with rents varying from 10 shillings to 60 pounds.  This is a valuable list as there a few other sources for this region at this time.    The earliest Catholic records in the area are in Kilmalkedar (Ballyferriter) in 1807,  while Dingle records do not start until 1825. ‘
