Hello All
I just wanted to say a huge thankyou to everyone who responded to my original
question about farming , particularly to Ron, Len and Elwyn, who have provided
so much information. I have been trying to record a narrative record of my
McCay family in Tyrone. I have a pretty good chronolog
Does anyone know if it is possible to access the historical records relating to

Hello all,
I wonder if anyone can tell me or suggest where I might find out about marriage

I have been reading with interest all the correspondence related to leases. The

Let me know if I can help at all.
