Hello, My wife, Vicki Barnett, descends from a Moses Barnett who emigrated from Clogher to Canada in 1823. I have some family tree details dating back to about 1700 but I've had no luck contacting any other Barnett descendants to see if they want to exchange information and old photos. I believe Vicki is related to the people who own Barnett Farms Ltd. Does anyone know that family? We would like to contact them (and any other Barnett descendants) if they have some interest in genealogy, but it's difficult to establish connections with people you don't know from thousands of miles away because there are so many scam artists on the Internet.

As you say, the TABs are essential for researching the previous generation and the only place to find them for Tyrone is at CTI, where you have transcribed them. And they are essential viewing IF you know which parish to research. However, I am often searching for a family in the 1820s/30s where the only location known is Co Tyrone. This is easy for the GV as the website allows one to search by county but I cannot do that with the CTI database. How hard would it be to merge the TAB data which is currently divided by parish, into a database covering the whole of Tyrone which would then be easily searchable. Think the Hacketts in that email we commented upon yesterday.

Remember that phonetic spelling of family names was most common in Griffiths, so it is useful to consider variations in spelling. The facility to upload data and photographs has been available since 2011 Also, the indexed Tithe Applotment Books of the 1820s and 1830s for Co. Tyrone are essential for researching the previous generation: the most extensive database for all Tyrone parishes is available on the CountyTyroneIreland website http://www.cotyroneireland.com/tithe/titheindex.html I hope that you have found some useful data amongst the many files on CTI.

This time I noticed the option to add information, photos, etc., to the record. Is this new or have I suddenly opened my eyes to something that has been there all along? It's a great idea.
