Hi Jim You will find a telephone directory on the website - thephonebook.com. Ignore the sign saying it's discontinued, and click on download A-Z directory. The area you want is Northern Ireland South west. The residential addresses are in the second part of the book so Woods is close to the end.
Omagh and Pomeroy are two different places about 15 miles apart in County Tyrone. Unfortunately I have no information relating to the Woods family, but hopefully the phone book is of some help.
