Donagheady researchers would benefit from Dr William Roulston’s wonderful 400 page Three Century of Life in a Tyrone Parish: A History of Donagheady 1600-1900 available as an E-Book from cotyroneireland.com https://cotyroneireland.com/estore/index.php?detailrecid=15 William was raised in the parish and is one of Ireland’s leading researchers and is Research Director at the Ulster Historical Foundation in Belfast. He knows his stuff. Regards, Len Swindley, Melbourne, Australia
