Yes, please do scan the pages. It is all new to me, and some of it might fit somewhere. While I'm at it, may I ask what software you have found most helpful? I need to buy one since my scribbled notes are getting harder and harder to organize. Any thoughts on what is a good choice?

Karen, I use Family Tree Maker, version 11 and so far have been pleased with it; of course that's probably because I haven't looked at anything else! It allows me to organize all the names and dates and places, has a place for notes or write-up about the person, can keep addresses, phone numbers, e-mail address, etc. for a person, and I can create multiple "trees" which enables me to keep my main family line for proven facts, but I can create "trial" lines with the various names I may be trying to piece together and figure out. I can also receive gedcom files directly into it without too much trouble. Anyway, back to the Knockbride book...the next interesting entry is the Tithe Applotment lists. The author says the Knockbride records are incomplete, but I don't know if that means in the years that his list covers or in the names that should appear on the list. At any rate, the information was supposedly collected between 1823 and 1837 (which to me is a pretty wide range) and here is what he has on your names: in Beglieve: Widow Kelly in Latsey: Robert Kelly in Tunnyfoyle: William Kelly The 40 Shilling Freeholders were as follows: (Karen, I wish I could tell you what that means, but until I read more of the text, I haven't a clue!) Samuel Kelly of Latchey William Kelly of Cappy al Cappog Robert Kelly of Latchey William Kelly of Latchey John Kelly of Latchey The Corroneary Presbyterian Church Cemetery has a headstone with the following: Erected in memory of John Kelly, Drutamon who died Nov. 12, 1927 aged 85 years, his wife Margaret Kelly who died Jan 1 1942 aged 81 years. In my brief scan of the various lists in the book I see no HART name, but I will keep my eyes open as I read it more thoroughly. I will scan the Kelly pages for you tomorrow. I will send them to your personal email, ok?
