The volumes list the names and addresses of parishioners in the Diocese of Ossory (and to a lesser extent in the Diocese of Kildare and Leighlin). The lists were probably compiled by the Capuchin friars for the purposes of collecting quest money. The books are divided by geographical and administrative area (mainly townland and parish). Divisions include Rathdowney, Borris-in-Ossory, Castletown, Mountrath, Aghaboe (book IV); Bennetsbridge, Drumbell, Thomastown, Gowran, Castlewarren (book VI).
