Thank you Len for your reply.  Below is my source.  Perhaps I misread
Bandony for Badoney.

James Chrystie, A.M., trans. from Kirkcowan; discharged by the rabble in
1689.  He went to Ireland, was adm. to Bandony, in the diocese of Derry,
and died 13th May 1718, aged about 76.  He marr. in 1696 Margaret Kincaid,
who survived him. (MS. Acc. of Min. 1689, Test. Reg.) [Presbytery of
Wigton.  p. 736, no. 168.

Hello Listers - 

First, I wish to pass a HUGE THANKS to one volunteer who over last six days 
completed the indexing of 158 files which was every file in the Law & Order: 
Crime, Court Records, Police, Process Servers, Bankruptcies menu. Granted many 
of the pages were quite small with only a few name but nevertheless 158 files 
is a very large task. 

Secondly, the index now contains over 129,400 names. 

Enjoy

[CoTyroneMailingList] Irish Bally---ony

2019-01-13 Thread Gordon Wilkinson via CoTyroneList

Hi Listers,

As a kid in Belfast, I was intrigued by so many Irish place names 
starting in Bally... Those who know tell me it's derived from the Gaelic 
'Baile na', meaning 'place of'. My mother would recite with a smile, the 
popular ditty of the time:


/If you weren't so Ballymena with your old Ballymoney, I'd buy a 
Ballycastle for my own Ballyholme./


My mother was one for such sayings, so much so you'd be forgiven if you 
thought she'd kissed the Blarney, but I doubt she was ever that far south.


There must be lots of these folk expressions which have fallen into 
disuse and now sadly lost.


Gordon
