What a crafty little workaround, Dave!!  I had no idea one could do that.
Just tried it and it works.

As well as simply browsing, and yes, perhaps hitting someone else you know
from that area, it could also be used for the very occasional image which
is actually wrong.  It has only happened to me a couple of times but is
very frustrating then it does happen.

Thanks for the tip,

Boyd

[CoTyroneMailingList] REID & STINSON OF DUNAGANNON IRELAND

Good morning, guys.

 

This list proves yet again that co. Tyrone families are a veritable global 
diaspora, round the globe and round the clock !

 

Boyd, your sleuthing is simply great. Wow! Lots of tips for all of us, 
especially in combining what’s available from various sources and repositories. 
 Jim, thanks for your encouragement (and for running our list).

 

Ray, you asked how to find the actual IMAGE.  In many instances on 
https://www.irishgenealogy.ie   (but not all), when you find a record listing 
you will see a link to "image" at the bottom of the white block (it’s in the 
middle of the page, for Births, just below the line for “Mother's Birth Surname”

 

This is what takes you to the actual .pdf.Only some entries include images, 
so you've got to be lucky.  Sometimes you’ve got to look through 2 or more 
pages to find the entry.

 

Then (if you’re adventurous and “on the prowl”) you can do more, and “sleuth 
the system” ….Once you're at the actual image, you can browse surrounding 
pages in the original register (e.g. for the same Registry Office) by craftily 
changing the .pdf image page number +1 or -1, in your browser page heading.  I 
have learnt of other folks from the same or other townlands nearby just by 
sniffing around in this way.  It's perhaps the closest one can get - 
electronically - to feeling and savouring the original pages in a leather-bound 
volume!

 

All the best for 2018.

 


Dave

Hi Dave.

 

Long time with no chat.  Great to see you still helping people on the lists. 

 

Can still remember when I FIRST joined CTI and/or Donegaleire, and you were 
living over there then; how you would so kindly check out stuff for people 
during your daily work travels around the countryside. 

 

Anyway, this note is because I am seeking your assistance with a few things. 

 

And I should start by saying that about 10 or more years ago I was hit with 
depression, which wrecked my mind and my memory as well as a lot of other 
things — but note though that I can still remember your kindliness to others as 
noted above; so maybe it is only my short-term memory which is kaput!  ha ha. 

 

I saw your note to Bob about STEENSON etc., with the URL for irishgenealogy.ie 
for civil BDMs.

 

AND I saw your other link to him, showing a pdf of the actual entry itself. 

 

 

BUT I cannot see how I can go FROM an irishgenealogy.ie RESULT —

 TO the pdf image.

 

 

My apologies for hitting you with this probably very elementary to you, 
request. 

Grateful for any light which you can shed on it for me please Bob.

 

Thanks in advance.

And wishing you a Happy New Year for 2018 — seeing that we are still within the 
first month of the year.  haha.

 

Kind Regards.

Ray in Oz.

Hello Bob

 

You need to go looking at the Civil Records -- suggest you go browsing and 
researching at https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/en/ 

and especially the Civil Records at  
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/civil-search.jsp

 

Elizabeth Reid’s birth register entry is accessible online 

 

Elizabeth Reid, born 20th June 1886

Daughter of Alexander Reid and Ann Reid formerly Steenson

 

Actual image is online at 

 

https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_returns/births_1886/02596/1958844.pdf

 

(Have a look and you will find your townland ….!)

 

No fewer than 5 Thomas Reids born in the Dungannon area, between 1869 and 1885 
(however the 1885 fellow appears to be a different family)

 

In my experience, you would have a good chance of finding more BMDs for Reid in 
the Dungannon area.

 

Sincerely
