In 1873 there was a national survey of all land owners covering all of the counties in England (and Wales, including Monmouthshire). All those who owned 1 acre or more were listed in this government publication, together with the address/location, the amount of land and its value. Therefore these immense volumes provide an invaluable source of information for historians and genealogists.
