Margaret, You may be thinking of the O.S. Memoirs, which vary by parish in how detailed they are, but for some (rare) parishes, there were lists of emigrants included. I have seen these lists extracted and published in other books, so you may have seen them in a secondary source, too.

Hi Claire, I have copies of the Ordnance Survey Memoirs, don't think the Inishowen list is from that, but then since I can't remember the name of the report I can't be certain. Hopefully my cousin can call Conal Bryne and ask him the name of the report.
