Dear Kay Lou, Am just re-reading your posting about Samuel DINSMORE who appears in Shantallow, Co. Donegal, on the 1765 Protestant householders' census. I have abstracted the following DINSMORE names from the list of freeholders in Co. Donegal, 1761-75, G.O. 442 (LDS film 0100181, item 1): David Dinsmore, living at Murrow, renting from Hadfield, 1761; John Dinsmore, Grahamstown, renting from Geo. Knox, 1761; Wm. Dinsmore, Ballymore, renting from W. Wray, 1761; Henry Dinsmore, Greenhills, from W. Wray, 1761; Wm. Dinsmore, Murrow, from W. Wray, 1761; Robert Dinsmore, Murrow, from W. Wray, 1761; Wm. Dinsmore, Grahamstown, from Geo. Knox, 1768; Saml. Dinsmore, Grahamstown, from Geo. Knox, 1768; Patrick Dinsmore, Upper Purt Island, from Hadfield, 1768; Samuel Dinsmore, Upper Ballymore, from Hadfield, 1768; Robert Dinsmore, Murrow, from ?; Pat. Dinsmore, Port Island, from ?; Henry Dinsmore, Greenhills, from ?; Abm. Dinsmore, Grahamstown, from ?. Murroe, Port, and Ballymore are all in Clondahorky Parish in the western side of Co. Donegal, Murroe being on the extreme western side of the county. Greenfields is in Convoy Parish the other side of the county to the south of Clondahorky. Grahamstown is in Drumhome Parish to the far south of Co. Donegal, near Fermanagh and Tyrone. Note that Fahan Parish, where Adam Dinsmore came from, is very near Murroe, being just to the northeast of it. I'm very interested in your information that your Adam DINSMORE was subletting land in Shantallow. Can you tell me more about that? Bill Lindsey
