Seems to have been named by Burges family, but I have no idea why he chose

Thanks Len. Ynyr Burges who is mentioned here was a local landlord near
Castlecaulfield, his family seat in Tyrone was at Parkanaur. House is still
standing, now Parkanaur College.

In my view that more or less sorts it. I knew nothing about your other
connection with Drumadds (spelling varied). Good luck with the Fergusons, they
are numerous, some in and around Ardtrea. Although its for a later period, the
wills available on the PRONI website might show a few Fergusons
I wonder if this could be the townland of Drumadds, near Coagh? Never heard of
a Lord Ferguson, or his castle in East Tyrone. Maybe it's an exaggerated
version, where the reality might have been a wealthy farmer with a larger house
than usual. Lots of Fergusons in that area of NE Tyrone.
I notice that PRONI are having an official launch of new on-line records on
Friday 29th Nov, including tithe records.
It does not indicate though whether these are being made available world wide
or simply at PRONI itself, so best to check on-line after 29th November. The

No travel listings for Irish sea crossings at that time. Interesting how many
people from Tyrone (especially East Tyrone) seem to have settled in Consett
around this time.

I see they had two venues on the West coast in 2018. The annual tour has been
a feature of their programme for many years, so here's hoping they are back on
the West coast in 2020.

William Carleton was a local Tyrone writer whose work dates from the early to
mid 19th century. When I read his book "Traits and Stories of the Irish
Peasantry" I found phrases I hadn't heard from childhood. It was reprinted
about 20-30 years ago in softback, so hopefully you may be able to
There was no insinuation intended, just simply stating a fact about growing and

Ron's description of the joys of planting and picking potatoes is an excellent
record of the task and backache involved before mechanisation. If only more
people would record their memories like this.
However most people in early 19th century Ireland were only growing smaller
