Hello John, Thanks for your query and have to say that I am delighted that a researcher has located a potentially useful file.
Referring back to the original printing of the 1876 work (presented to the Parliament at Westminster) I am unable to locate any references to Barnwell/ Barnhill and Lyons (save for a single Lyons entry in Donagheady parish of a family who had resided there since the days of the Plantation). Only owners of land are recorded, not tenants or occupiers; perhaps the unnamed Lyons purchased leases from the landed proprietor? You have not quoted any names, locations/ townlands or dates so I am feeling challenged as to how assist your research may be assisted offers avenues that may be useful. If you have been successful in locating the family/ families in Griffiths Valuation you should refer to the Revision Books available online on the PRONI website https://www.nidirect.gov.uk/services/searching-valuation-revision-books for dates and changes in occupancy. Have you referred to the online wills calendars also on the PRONI website? https://apps.proni.gov.uk/WillsCalendar_IE/WillsSearch.aspx which may be useful. I hope so. Trusting that the above offers some further possible research; it’s the best I can do for you.

Tyrone, Northern Ireland 1876 Jim As you may have gathered by now my computer skills are very basic. Do my mails appear to all members, as seems the case, when I receive quite a few mails with information nothing to do with me. I have read the recent mail concerning landowners in Tyrone. During my research some time ago before we lost our website for reasons previously explained I discovered my gggrandfather and his wife had acquired a farm and were able to buy others for their 6 sons. All were along the Strule river valley. My gggrandmother was Barnwell but we never discovered her first name. She had inherited funds from her unmarried brother who had done well from his medical practice but died young I had assumed they had purchased the land but perhaps they remained tenants of the land and just owned the farm on it. Their name Lyons does not appear on the landowners list recently sent. It seems I will have to try to find the Griffiths pages relating to my family to establish if they were tenants as Les Swindlay's research seems to indicate.
