Beverley, You could try contacting the Local Studiessection at Omagh Library and asking them what they have. There ought to be some newspapers accounts and they may have personalaccounts from folk who were there. Therelevant date seems to have been 6th Jan 1839.

Are there any specific incidents noted for Tyrone about the Big Wind of 1839? I am reading the novel by Coogan. Thank you.
