Barb, Cooel is part of Coolavannagh townland, or an alternative name for it. Today that’s on the Glen Rd outside Drumquin. I see a death for a William Coulter in Cooel on 3.2.1884 aged 67. His son William was the informant.
There’s this 1 Coulter family there in 1901: http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Tyrone/Clunahill/Coolavannagh/1722817/ Son Samuel was born at Cooel on 15.4.1872, and from that birth certificate I can see his parents were William Coulter & Catherine Wilson. You can see where the family farmed using the maps on the Griffiths Valuation site: http://www.askaboutireland.ie/griffith-valuation/index.xml Use the slider bar in the top rh corner to overlay a modern map on the contemporaneous one. Same family in 1911: http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Tyrone/Clunahill/Coolavannagh/852722/ Drumquin Presbyterian church only has records from 1845 onwards so there are unlikely to be any records for the births of your John Coulter c 1760 etc. There’s no Coulter family farming in Cooel in the 1826 tithes. There was a William farming in Curraghamulkin which is not too far away. I have no way of saying whether he’s the William who stayed in Ireland. https://cotyroneireland.com/tithe/longfieldwest.html Elwyn On 07/07/2019, BARBARA COULTER via CoTyroneList <cotyronelist@cotyroneireland.com> wrote: > Hello County Tyrone listers, > > Hoping someone might be able to help out with some suggestions.
