Hello Doreen,

Thank you for your email and am delighted to learn of your success; I am pleased to assist your research. It is indeed a red letter day to receive a response to any of my submissions to CTI https://www.cotyroneireland.com/ (in excess of 250 files so far in 2020). Many thanks!

As regards the spelling of John Liggett’s townland address (Derrygreevney), I have transcribed it as it is recorded. The townland is clearly stated to be within Aghaloo parish, but is not listed as an official townland in that parish (possibly a subdenomination)?
[cid:image002.png@01D6B1E6.52751E90]

There are three Leggett leaseholds recorded in Griffiths Valuation of Aghaloo parish,(George, Samuel & William) but not in any townlands spelt similarly: Drummond, Annaghsallagh & Knockaroy. I don’t think it could be confused with Derrycreevey .

Perhaps there are others who have been assisted – I would be pleased to hear from you, but am unable to undertake research.......work commitments allow little time for any further Tyrone, Donegal, Londonderry & Fermanagh research other than compiling files

I wish you continued success with your research,

Jim, I have to thank you once again.
The messages are coming through on gmail!
But also, thanks to Len Swindley for his recent reading of the Seskinore
Presbyterian church records.
After almost 40 years of searching for the marriage of my husband's grandparents in county Tyrone, Ireland, there it was, the last item on the recent list!
The altered spelling does not put me off, as Derrygreavney doesn't exist, and could well be Derrycreevy townland.  His father is a farmer, and his name is correct. Hurrah!!!
A toast of good irish whiskey to you both!
Doreen
