Customs & Excise Officers – Smythe-Wood Newspaper Index

Irish Genealogical Research Society

Dr P Smythe-Wood’s Irish Newspaper Index Customs & Excise Officers & their families

Also Inland Revenue officers

The late Dr Patrick Smythe-Wood presented a large collection of card indexes to the IGRS Library,

reflecting his various interests, - the Irish in Canada, Ulster families, Prison Officers etc. These include

abstracts from various Irish Newspapers, & these are given below for all papers up to 1870. Dr Smythe-

Wood often found entries in several newspapers for the one event, & these will be shown as one entry

below. There are further large card indexes of Miscellaneous notes on families which are not at present

being digitised, but which often deal with the same families treated below.

For a guide to PRO records on Customs & Excise officers in Britain & Ireland, see:-

http://www.mariners-l.co.uk/UKCustoms.html.

Note also the PRO guide: H M Customs and Excise was formed in 1909 by the merging of the Board of

Customs with the Excise Department of the Inland Revenue. Customs officers collected the duty on

imports and prevented smuggling, while Excise men were responsible for collecting the excise tax on home

produced goods.

Customs Officers:

Principal Officers: 1. Controller of Customs. 2. Collector of Customs. 3. Surveyor of Customs

Lesser roles: Tide Waiter, Tide Surveyor, Coast Waiter, Land Waiter, Land Surveyor, Searcher, Weigher

& Tidesmen.

Some Excise Officers serving in Britain are included, where an Irish connection is noted, & it is possible

that they may have also served in Ireland; Dr Smythe-Wood has also collected elsewhere instances of Irish

serving in Customs & Excise abroad.
