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 track down a
copy somewhere. He wrote other books as well, but these stories are
relatively short and easily read. There is also a Carleton Society in Tyrone,
who are interested in all things connected with Carleton and run a very
successful summer school each year.
