    This was posted in the Journal, they didn't link to the actual article so maybe it hasn't been published yet, but it looks very interesting. A few maps of parish wealth in different areas around the time of the Edward Bruce war and a map of parish density, using Vatican archives.

    Parish Density - what is that?

    Density of population?

    And why are some areas charted and others blank?

    Number of people per parish I presume, maybe a bit more involved statistically, we'll have to wait for the thesis before getting any more information I guess.
