Katherine,
Canyou direct me to the source of that information? I might be able totell you
more if I have that.
Inthe meantime, I can tell you that there were workhouses in Fermanaghin :
Ballyshannon, Clones, Enniskillen & Lisnaskea.
InTyrone: Armagh, Castlederg, Clogher, Cookstown, Dungannon,Enniskillen, Gortin
(closed around the late 1870s), Lowtherstown(renamed Irvinestown c 1880), Omagh
& Strabane.
Workhouseboundaries often crossed county boundaries and in the case of Tyrone&
Fermanagh, both Enniskillen and Irvinestown (originally namedLowtherstown)
cover parts of both Tyrone & Fermanagh. Which couldlead to a "Tyrone &
Fermanagh" reference. If you haveno other clues they may be the 2 to start with.
Butif Ellen died in 1864, there should be a statutory death certificatefor her.
There was only 1 Ellen Quigley death in what is now NorthernIreland in 1864,
and that was a child aged 0 who died in Londonderryon 9.1.1864. So I'd be keen
to know the source of the informationthat says your Ellen died in 1864 in
Tyrone/Fermanagh.

I’m not sure. The record I saw is a death record that just says Death Place:
County FermanaghDeath Place (Original): Work house, Counties Tyrone &
Fermanagh, Ireland.It doesn’t specify beyond that.

Ifyou tell us the townland where Ellen lived or died, we can direct youto the
workhouse for that location. All the surviving records forworkhouses in Tyrone
(and Northern Ireland generally) are in PRONI inBelfast. They are not on-line.
So a personal visit is required toview them. Or you could get a local
researcher to do that for you.
OnceI know the townland, I’ll tell you what records PRONI have for the relevant
workhouse.

Does anyone have information on the workhouses that would have been in Tyrone
in the 1800’s? I found a record for an Ellen Quigley who died there in 1864.
She may be an ancestor, and I’m looking for more information. I am not sure
which location it would have been at, and I’m not sure where to find it. Any
help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Katherine Quigley
