Hi All, I've just read further on the FMP and they do not have maps for any of the Counties of Northern Ireland.

When you look at the image of the actual valuation entry in Griffith you will see a plot number in the outermost left-hand column. This is the number that you look for in the townland, once you have found the map using Richards helpful instructions. BTW, what you will actually see is the OS 6-inch sheet on which the townland is mapped, so you unless youre very lucky you may have to hunt around a bit for the townland itself. It helps if you have a vague idea of where it is in the locale - checking a modern OSI map (I use the Discovery 500 series) or the OSI website first can be useful. Ive emailed FMP to enquire why there isnt a direct link to the relevant OS sheet from the results page. This was the way the Origins site used to work, as far as I remember.

The belief that it is possible to pinpoint the location where one's ancestors first took their surnames approximately 1000 years ago is the basis of case study reports produced and marketed by English, Scottish and Irish Origenes. This review will examine the claim with particular reference to the application of the methodology to English case studies and the use of farmers as a reliable locator for a testee's genetic homeland. It will not directly address the question of Scottish or Irish case studies, although many of the same points could be equally applied in the context of these reports. http://geogenealogy.ca/farmer.htm
Well argued Howard - I concur.
