St. Patrick's C of I, Gortin 1921 1982 2002 ST. PATRICK’S PARISH CHURCH, LOWER BADONEY, GORTIN Thanks to Hazel Robinson for patiently helping to decipher and make the gravestone recordings on our many journeys to this peaceful graveyard of our ancestors. Colour photographs by Ann Robinson. Black & White photograph courtesy of Ann Dark. © 2017 A.K. ROBINSON 2 ST. PATRICK’S PARISH CHURCH, LOWER BADONEY, GORTIN ST. PATRICK’S CHURCH OF IRELAND, PARISH OF LOWER BODONEY (BADONEY), GORTIN, CO. TYRONE. The Parish of Badoney was originally a very large parish, stretching up the Glenelly Valley, with the oldest church site in the townland of Glenroan. This church is also called St. Patrick and this part of the parish eventually became Upper Badoney. The parish of Badoney was separated into two parts in 1730 and the first church of Lower Badoney, St. Patrick’s, was built in the village of Gortin. It was not until 1774 that the parish of Lower Badoney was constituted. The two parts were reunited again in 1924. In 1856 a new church was built in Lower Badoney at a cost of £1,921-15-00. This is the current church and is on a slightly different site to the older one. For many years parts of the old church, and the school, could be seen in the graveyard. In 1939 the graveyard was measured by J.C.M. Knox, Londonderry. In the 1980s all signs of the old church were removed when the graveyard was “tidied up.” From the First edition of the Ordnance Survey Maps (1832-1846) the position of the first church can be seen, along with the school. The graveyard is smaller than now and the road to Omagh is shown as joining Gortin Main Street about half way down. In the Second edition (1846–1862) the graveyard is larger and the path from the small gate is marked. The road to Omagh is now also marked in its present position. By the Third edition (1900-1907) the new church is shown and the old church and school have disappeared. I have spent many years recording the inscriptions in the graveyard and I have many relatives buried in the graveyard. Because of the age of the stones many of them are weathered, inscriptions are now faint, in some cases the surface of the stones is flaking away and there has also been vandalism in the graveyard. It is impossible to read some of them fully but I have attempted to record what is still visible and so make a written record of them. Many of the stones are covered in moss and in some cases grass. Some of the dates on the stones may be wrong because of human error when the stones were inscribed. I may also have made mistakes in deciphering the stones. Many of the graves had metal number markers, which have mostly been removed. I have recorded in the inscriptions where some of these markers used to be. Looking at the ages given on the headstones many people lived into their 90s and some were over 100, including some of my own relatives. The youngest age recorded on a stone is 5 days. Of the legible stones the earliest stone seems to be for Walter Clark who died in 1718, aged 60, which seems to be before the first church was built. There was a Walter Clarke who was churchwarden of Upper Badoney 1693-4. Some headstones record the names of family members who are not actually buried in Lower Badoney but whose names are remembered on the headstone. Many people buried in the graveyard have no headstone to record who they were, or else the stones are long gone. Hopefully these inscriptions will go some way to safeguarding the rich history of the people of the area and the heritage of the site. Ann K.

  • Smythe-Wood Series A
    Smythe-Wood Newspaper Index – “A” series – mainly Co Tyrone Irish Genealogical Research Society Dr P Smythe-Wood’s Irish Newspaper Index Selected families, mainly from Co Tyrone ‘Series A’ The late Dr Patrick Smythe-Wood presented a large collection of card indexes to the IGRS Library, reflecting his various interests, - the Irish in Canada, Ulster families, various professions etc. These include abstracts from various Irish Newspapers, including the Belfast Newsletter, which are printed below. Abstracts are included for all papers up to 1864, but excluding any entries in the Belfast Newsletter prior to 1801, as they are fully available online. Dr Smythe-Wood often found entries in several newspapers for the one event, & these will be shown as one entry below. Entries dealing with RIC Officers, Customs & Excise Officers, Coastguards, Prison Officers, & Irish families in Canada will be dealt with in separate files, although a small cache of Canadian entries is included here, being families closely associated with Co Tyrone. In most cases, Dr Smythe-Wood has recorded the exact entry, but in some, marked thus *, the entries were adjusted into a database, so should be treated with more caution. There are further large card indexes of Miscellaneous notes on families which are not at present being digitised, but which often deal with the same families treated below.

Provenance: Office of the Circuit Clerk, City of St. Louis. This case originated with the death of Hazlett Kyle Campbell in March 1938. He left behind an estate valued at approximately $1,850,000. More than 1,000 people eventually came forward claiming to be heirs of this estate. The documents included in this finding aid were filed in the St. Louis Circuit Court between 1938 and 1944. Missouri State Archives staff processed and prepared the materials for microfilm in 2006-2007.

ALL who love liberty and value Protestantism venerate the character of John Knox; no British Reformer is more entitled to the designation of illustrious. By three centuries he anticipated that parochial system of education which has lately become the law of England; by nearly half that period he set forth those principles of civil and religious liberty which culminated in a system of constitutional government. To him Englishmen are indebted for the Protestant character of their "Book of Common Prayer;" Scotsmen for a Reforma­ tion so thorough as permanently to resist the encroachments of an ever aggressive sacerdotalism. Knox belonged to a House ancient and respectable; but those bearing his name derive their chiefest lustre from 1eing connected with a race of which he was a member. The family annals presented in these pages reveal not a few of the members exhibiting vast intellectual capacity and moral worth. \Vhat follows is the result of wide research and a very extensive correspondence. So many have helped that a catalogue of them ,...-ould be cumbrous.
