Please, how or where have you found access to this census..Londonderry 1831....? Looking for my gr-gr grandmother Isabella PIERCY daughter of Thomas PIERCY from Co. Derry, N. Ireland. Thank you for any help. Judy, in NC

Judy in NC I wrote to the Genealogy Centre (Heritage Library, 14 Bishop Street, Derry, Northern Ireland, BT 48 6PW). I found their information online at their website: http://www.irishroots.net/derry.htm. If you go to the website there is a list of their resources and a form you can fill out. I knew VERY little information but the surname of Lattimore was uncommon enough that I felt it would be easy to find something. I also sent a research fee of $50......every penny was worth it!! They did not find my ancestor directly, however they sent me a two page letter of their research with information, a map of the county of Londonderry, a map of the civil parishes, and a copy of the 1831 census from the Parish of Desertmartin including the Townland of Cranny and Lecumpher (the partial 1831 census with the surname of Lattimore), and then a list of their computerized church registers. Once I saw the 1831 census I began to do more research on my own, not knowing which of the two towns my ancestor was from! I was able to contact the Lecumpher Presbyterian Church online and asked about their records...........they responded to me within days and I had found the records for MY ancestors.......so I knew where they lived prior to coming to the USA!!! I was very pleased with the results of the Genealogy Centre! I have been very reluctant to pay for research, because I like to do it myself. In this case it was a very good investment. I wish you luck with your search!

This would only be practicable to search if you knew what parish your relatives lived in. Only some of the 1831 Census survived, I believe most of Londonderry did. I believe the 1831 Census may be out on CD as well. If you don't know where in Londonderry your PIERCY relatives came from the CD is your best bet -you might want to find out if a genealogical library near you has this, or order it - probably from Ancestry.com. You can probably search this by surname. Good luck, Marian from BC Canada.

Judy, You can access the 1831 census on microfilm at any LDS Family History Center. The entire county is on 4 rolls. If you go to www.familysearch.com you can find out the film numbers. You can then order the film from LDS for $3.50 per roll. I used the center in Baton Rouge - however some centers may already have the info as permanent info.
