Thank you both for taking the time and effort to give me help with this and for 
the incredibly detailed replies. It really is appreciated. You've given me such 
a lot to go on. Will keep me busy for a while!

I've just stumbled upon a website with lots of detail about the family 
https://www.irelandxo.com/ireland-xo/history-and-genealogy/ancestor-database/william-nicklenichol

I'll have to spend some time researching what I can to tie it all together and 
hopefully fit them all into my tree.

Many thanks once again for all your help.

Best wishes

Julie

Andrew may have been a brother, but it also looks like an Andrew was the father 
or grandfather.  Looking at Len's page for Woodend we get the timeline:

1777 Andrew Nickle
1787 Andrew Nickle
1848 Joseph Nickle (2)
1858 Joseph Nicholl & Andrew Nicholl
http://cotyroneireland.com/rental/woodend.html

I went and mined PRONI's Abercorn records for Woodend and see that prior to 
Andrew it was John Nickle in 1751.  There is a reference to his father who may 
be the
9 September 1750 Jo. Nichols.  Hard to say if this was the same John or perhaps 
the father John or Joseph.  You can place them in Woodend because the Pearsons 
at one time held 1/3 of Woodend.  Tidbits are as follows:

27 April 1744.  Jno. McClintock, Strabane to the Earl of Abercorn...  One 
Pearson claims a lease of Woodend, although Hamilton describes it 'as out of 
lease'; discusses validity of Hamilton's title. [PRONI.  D623/A/27/11].

9 September 1750.  Jo. Colhoun, Strabane, to the Earl of Abercorn...  Letter 
giving details of the nine units in which James Pearson's farm is set; the 
smallest of these units are 10, 11 and 12 square perches each 'those sundry 
under tenants are poor and have all bog rooms and some of them have their 
cabbins kept in repair for them; Pearson built the most of them at his own 
cost, his wife not being able longer to suffer his behaviour, was last year 
oblidged to bring in her own sister who's husband is Alexander Wilson, an 
industrious good weaver and paid Pearson for the tenant right of the half of 
what your Lordship wo'd grant in lease; what they hold now as appears in the 
mapp will be very litle for both. ***Jo. Nichols*** tenement was formerly a 
bleach green and as I propose being tenant for what part your Lordship pleases 
in trust for Pearson and Wilson have some thoughts of repairing that green for 
my son who is learning to understand the linning trade; all the tenants through 
Woodend cutt their turf in Pearson's bog and there is about thirty shillings 
per annum for bog rooms over and above what serves the tennants. [PRONI.  
D623/A/30/32].

7 October 1750.  James, Earl of Abercorn to Mr Colhoun...  How Pearson's wife 
will get rid of him by bringing her brother-in-law into the land, she knows 
best; that the land is little for them both, I can easily believe, but I cannot 
make it bigger. I must let it in the separate parcels it now stands in, unless 
where any little alteration can be made in the divisions, to the satisifaction 
of the parties, or according to your own judgement. ***Nickle*** you will find 
pays £3. a year. The 'cabbins' I wish had never been built, and I will have a 
clause in the new articles to prohibit the building any new house within a 
hundred feet of the road. You may draw articles, if they desire it, for six 
years only to Denning, Ewing, and Nickle, and to whom you please for Pearson 
and Wilson, and to Molloy. The other tenements are too small for me, and must 
fall into Denning's holding. If you find an opportunity of putting the articles 
into Mitchell and Macarell's hands, they will with your direction, forward them 
to me. [PRONI.  D623/A/13/81].

3 December 1751.  James, Earl of Abercorn, London, to Mr Colhoun...  John 
Nickle complains to me much particularly that Pearson is forcing him out of a 
piece of land, without having any right to it, and turning Nickle's father out 
of a house, that is in Nickle's bargain. [PRONI.  D623/A/14/47].

22 December 1751.  Jo. Colhoun, Strabane, to the Earl of Abercorn...  ***John 
Nickle*** complains without reason; he has all the house and land that ever he 
held there; the land he wants was not measured to him, is and was always a 
common passage to himself as well as Pearson and cannot be wanted to either 
.... I have viewed and compared the parks and wast piece of ground in the 
enclosed mapp and they ly exactly in park town as in the mapp [PRONI.  
D623/A/30/129].

Best wishes!

Hello again Julie,

Thank you for your message and am delighted to assist you.

Nickles were also leaseholders in Tullyard which adjoins Woodend - see my file 
of Tullyard Rentals and Valuations 1777-1858 
http://www.cotyroneireland.com/rental/tullyardrentandval.html

ANDREW NICKLE died at Tullyard 1887 aged 92 years 
https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/en/ but have been unsuccessful in locating the 
death record for JOSEPH

LECKPATRICK PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH STIPEND PAYERS 1863
JOSEPH NICKLE paid 8/6 April and again in October
ANDREW NICKLE paid 3/6 October

LECKPATRICK PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH MARRIAGES 1845-1930 
http://www.cotyroneireland.com/churchrecord/leckpresmar1845-1930.html

LECKPATRICK MARRIAGE ANNOUNCEMENTS 1828-58
http://www.cotyroneireland.com/marriages/leckpatrick.html

LECKPATRICK MARRIAGE ANNOUNCEMENTS 1859-69
http://www.cotyroneireland.com/marriages/leckpatrick2.html

In the late 19th Century there was a Nickle family residing in adjoining Ballee 
and doubtlessly related.
Good luck with your research and regards,
Len Swindley
