Hello. I assume from your e-mail address that your name is Candace, as you have not signed off with any name. In reality, what you are asking is How Does One Do Tyrone Genealogy? A huge question, with many and lengthy answers. Instead of even attempting such a project, I will instead guide you to this very helpful little booklet, which was written particularly for genealogy research in the adjoining County Donegal; however most of the resources which the author: Boyd GRAY mentions, are equally applicable for County Tyrone -- one of the major differences being that you may need to go to PRONI (The Public Record Office of Northern Ireland) for a lot of your information. Boyd is or was a member of this list, so my apologies Boyd if I am pre-empting any reply from you. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~donegal/genbooklet.pdf I had attempted to find the same booklet listed on Boyd's own West Ulster Genealogy web-site, but was not able to do so. Probably due to my own poor internet research skills. Candace, just remember that google will give you a LOT of helpful results, so I'd suggest that you google every time that you meet a terminology which you do not understand -- like "townland" perhaps; also for every place-name which you encounter and want to know more about; and also for the surnames which you are researching. Finally, I'd also recommend that you look through the past postings on this list for several years past, as members constantly post hints and suggestions for relevant research. By reading every posting to the list, even if it is not for surnames which interest us, many of us are forever learning interesting new tid-bits of research options, interpretations of old ones, etc. For example they might mention US or Canadian (or British, New Zealand or Australian -- or other countries' ) resources which might help you. Good Luck with your hunting. Ray in oz ----- Original Message ----- From: <candacelr@aol.com> ... I have a question, if you know that your Great, Great Grandparents are from County Tyrone, Ireland, what does one do to find more information? ...
