Re: [CoTyroneMailingList] New Content - Townland Records

[Dave Mitchell via CoTyroneList]

Hello Rick.

Lots of Morrison mentions in the early BMD records C17th for St Columbs in 
Derry.   Symington's Civil Survey 1654 is probably also worth looking at. 

My guess is a Scots-Irish surname with Gaelic origins, so don't be too quick to 
assume English!  In Scottish history, Morrisons had ongoing clashes with the 
MacLeods ...

[CoTyroneMailingList] A bear hug for a Glendermott man, September 1811 ..... from the Isle of Man newspapers

[Dave Mitchell via CoTyroneList]

(OCR version – apologies, haven’t done any spelling-editing)

 

Manks Advertiser, Saturday, September 21, 1811; Page: 4

EXTRAORDINA RY OCCURRENCE.

Two Gentlemen have lately arrived in the nei ghbourhood of Londonderry, from 
New York, who relate a very extraordinary occurrence, which happened to a young 
man that emigrated some years ago from the parish of Glendermott, to the United 
States. It seems that the latter, accompanied by a middle-aged man, was 
travelling through some thick woods, when he es pied a very large tree, on the 
branches of which appeared a pathway to the top ; being struck with its 
appearance, his curiosity prompted him to ascend its summit, which had been 
previously broken off, and dis p layed a yawning hollow trunk; after having 
viewed it, he was about to descend, when b y some accident he missed his foot 
and fell into the trunk, at the bottom of which lay two very young bears. Here 
he remained for some time before the old man had courage to search for him, 
when he did, he was unable to render the other any assistance. He went, however 
, to find a rope. During his absence the old bear came, and what must be the 
sensations of the unfortunate youth on seeing the huge bod y of the ferocious 
animal darkening, in its descent, his dreary habitation, which he mi g ht then 
literally consider his coffin ! The nature of the place, however, rendered it 
necessary for his frig htful nei ghbour to descend with her tail foremost, as 
otherwise she could not have returned. Finding her in this posture, his only 
remedy, he thought, was to lay fast hold of her posteriors, which so affri g 
hted the bear, that she immediate l y ascended dragging him up to the top, and 
her fear was so great, that slie fell off a branch and broke herTieart ; while 
the other quietly descended, to the great satisfaction of his old companion, 
whom he met returning with assistance. He has since, it is said, become 
immensely rich

NEW BRIDGE AT LONDONDERRY.—In Londonderry the new iron toll bridge which spans 
the Foyle has been formally opened by Sir Sydney H. Waterlow, governor of the 
Irish Society of London. Eighty thousand pounds were reipiired to free the 
bridge; oue-half of this sum was contributed by the society, and the remainder 
by taxation spread over twenty years.

 

 

Found this too, a county Tyrone marriage from 1817 …

[CoTyroneMailingList] Fulton - Windy Hill, near Donemana

[Dave Mitchell via CoTyroneList]

Dear All 

 

Anyone researching FULTON at WINDY HILL, Donagheady, co. Tyrone (near
Donemana)?

 

Quite by chance, I have come across newspaper entries for EDWARD FULTON,
bachelor, of WINDY HILL (or possibly ALBERT JOSEPH FULTON), who died in 1957
leaving a will that was challenged as a “death bed will” and disputed by no
fewer than 14 cousins who also sought a slice of his £12,000 estate ….!

 

All I have is a listing of some 12 newspaper mentions (1956 – 1960),
unedited OCR search hits and showing fragments only.  

 

If anyone would like these notes, please contact me directly on

Thanks, Guys, for the team work!

 

Ray Hawkins has cleverly pointed out that names and surnames AS TRANSCRIBED
in the National Archives Listings may be different from what was actually
recorded .   Hence, for "Knox" there are entries under "Knose" and "Knor".
Wow!  What a start to the New Year,  I had not seen these ..

 

These images can all be downloaded, free of charge.

 

Also, by manipulating the actual image (..00xxx.pdf) number in the website
link, we can access  other secrets ..

 

*   See for example,

http://titheapplotmentbooks.nationalarchives.ie/reels/tab//004625731/0046257
31_00280.pdf  This links to the original tithe recordal certificate for
Urney, and shows original signatures for i.a. the Rector, Rev. James Jones
and the 4 vestrymen -- William Inch (?), James Cunningham, James Woods and
David Woods.   

 

*   And it is clearly "Galbraith Hamilton" who is one of the local
landowners, rather than "Gabbrath Hamilton" or "Gabbett Hamilton" (as
transcribed).  See especially at
http://titheapplotmentbooks.nationalarchives.ie/reels/tab//004625731/0046257

Re: [CoTyroneMailingList] Revision Books of Griffiths Valuation

[Dave Mitchell via CoTyroneList]

Dear Peter.

 

For the colour codings and dates, these are often shown on the inside cover or 
on the first or second page of each revaluation book (these images now also 
online at PRONI) – often gives a more exact date than in the actual townland 
listings, although difficult to be definitive!

 

Cf.  VAL/12/B/42/26B (1864 - 1880)

 

The External Cover to the book says:

 

Page 1 – Revised in 1866

Page 2 – Revisions, April 1872 (or is it 1873?), April 1874, April 1876

 

In the actual pages for the townland of Cullion (Donagheady parish), dates are 
given as 1869, 1870, 1875, 1876, etc.

Griffiths clerks revisited properties every couple of years and noted the 
changes. A different colour was normally used for each year. Sometimes the 
years can be out by a year or two. The books themselves do have a specific 
start and finish dates which are evident if you handle the originals. Typically 
they lasted 7 to 10 years but some were for different periods.  The changes in 
the VAL numbers were usually because of population changes which meant that 
some electoral districts needed split or moved.

My recent subscription to the Mailing List has paid off almost immediately! 
Many thanks to Len Swindley for recently drawing attention to the online 
Revision Books.  I had no idea they existed. The coverage over time and name 
changes have provided quite solid confirmation of aspects of my family tree.

I have noticed that the date of changes is unclear, being restricted to 
specific periods of years, so the best I have been able to conclude is that the 
change(s) took place by such and such year at the latest.  Change sequences are 
clear and useful. Sometimes the same book (going by page markings) purports to 
cover several different time periods even though having different “VAL” 
numbers. This creates a bit of uncertainty. The books themselves do not seem to 
have dates.  Does anyone have any comments in this regard?

Hello everyone,

My name is Tania Margaret Sharkey.  I live in Auckland, New Zealand.

My father William Sharkey was born on 24 January 1917 and the documents I have 
for him record that he was born in Strabane, County Tyrone.

My grandparents were Henry Sharkey and Mary/Martha/Margaret Sharkey (née 
Brown).  From recent information received, I understand they are buried in 
Leckpatrick Presbyterian Cemetery.  I understand my grandfather was born on 8 
February 1889 and died in 1966 and my grandmother was born in 1885 and died in 
1930.

I do know that my father had many siblings: George, Ann, Martha (Molly), Sally, 
Harry, Florence.  

I understand my father and his siblings attended Ballylaw Primary School.

I do not know much about my Irish heritage.  My father was 63 when I was born 
and I was 7 years old when he passed away.  He did not leave much information 
behind about his family.

If anyone should have any information I would be truly grateful.  I am 
traveling to Ireland in September 2019 to visit County Tyrone and the cemetery 
where my grandparents are buried.  I would love to find where Ballylaw Primary 
was and if I can find the home where my father was raised (or area) or any 
documents relating to the family. 

 

Thank you.



 

Yours faithfully

Re: [CoTyroneMailingList] Help with Tracing Mathew Yarrow and family from Oritor, County Tyrone.

Hello Sue

 

A small note …   I have come across the surname “Knobbs” in Londonderry, ca. 
1900.  William Knobbs was a stonemason, wife Sarah, daughter Matilda.

 

Possibly “Nobbs” and “Knobbs” were spelling variations of the same surname.

Oritor, County Tyrone.

 

Hi Team

 

I have recently subscribed to the email list so apologies if what I am asking 
is not what this list is designed for..

 


My name is Sue Piper.  My great great grandmother was Matilda Yarrow who 
immigrated to Australia from Oritor County Tyrone in 1842. Matilda arrived with 
her 2 sisters , Margaret and Eliza. Their father is listed as Mathew Yarrow 
(bootmaker)  and mother as Margaret or (Anne) Yarrow (née Nobbs   as stated on 
the death certificate I have for Matilda). I have been trying to find 
information about Matilda, her siblings and her parents to see where they came 
from ( if they immigrated to Ireland from elsewhere -Scotland perhaps??).  

 

I have found reference to a Mathew Yarrow on the Tithe Aplotments register in 
1826 for Kildress  and was wondering if this is the same person. I have checked 
John Grenham and there is no Mathew Yarrow mentioned so i have no idea when he 
passed away - or why the sisters shipped to Australia in 1842 (seems for work 
however).  

 

I am travelling to Ireland in mid June but will not have time to get to Tyrone.

 

Hoping you can point me in the right direction?

 

Kindest rehgards

 

Sue Piper

Re: [CoTyroneMailingList] Knox and Patton Families: Clady Presbyterian Church, Ardstraw Parish Marriages 1845-68

[Dave Mitchell via CoTyroneList]

Hello Marsha 

 

Just to add another snippet to your Knox-Patton relationship (just in case
it may assist) ..

 

PRONI lists the will for Letitia Patton of Ballymagorry (died 27 June 1928),
the wife of Patrick Patton, retired farmer.  

 

Under her maiden name, she is mentioned as "Letitia Chambers" in the will of
her uncle John Knox at Drumenny (died 3 November 1898).  It would appear
that her mother was a Knox from a family at Urney (and also Drumenny), also
that Letitia was a niece of Rev. Robert Knox, Linenhall Street, Belfast, and
a granddaughter of Hugh Knox of Urney (lived at Stephenstown), the
longstanding church elder who died at Urney on 2 July 1852.

 

Should this help you, please do drop me a line.

There will be several further files that should prove useful, but those
above contain the greatest amount of data. And many thanks for your kind
sentiments; I enjoy receiving messages from researchers who have benefitted
from my submissions. Good luck searching the above records and regards,

Dear Sir, 

 

I would like to thank you for transcribing these records.  From this
transcription I learned where my Great, great Grandfather lived in Ireland.
It continues to be a journey to find him in the US.  Apparently his wife
left and returned to Ireland with my great grandfather and his brother, only
to die somewhere and leaving her two little boys with her Patton family.
Fortunately, the boys return to the US with and are raised and educated by
their uncle Thomas Patton.  But previous history on the parents remains a
mystery.  

 

Again many thanks for your excellent work.

 

Sincerely,

Marsha Heaston
