Od. NET GOVERNMENT OF NORTHERN IRELAND GENERAL REGISTER OFFICE Censu$ of Population 1961 COUNTY OF TYRONE Printed and presented pursuant to 9 Eliz. 2, Chap. 8 BELFAST: HER MAJESTY'S STATIONERY OFFICE 1964 INTRODUCTION In accordance with the Census Act (Northern Ireland), 1960, a Census of the population was taken on the 23rd April, 1961, which was also the date of Censuses in the other parts of the United Kingdom. It was the fourth since the establishment of the Government of Northern Ireland, previous Censuses having been taken in 1926, 1937 and 1951. The 1961 Census was much fuller, as regards the niomber and scope of the questions, than any of its predecessors. Compared with the 1951 enumeration, the basic questions were much the same but enquiries about nationality, education, occupation and employment were subst^htially modified. New questions asked for information concerning persons with certain scientific and technological qualifica­ tions, the number of children of women who were or had been married, the type of accommodation occupied by private/households, whether such accommodation was owned or rented and the extent to which piped water, cooking and toilet facilities were available. In November, 196.1, a Preliminary Report was published giving population figures for each county, county borough and administrative area, together with information on the ages and religious denbminations of the people by counties and county boroughs, and the numbers of'private dwellings and households in each administrative area. A new Topographical Index, replacing the edition issued in the series of Reports on the 1926 Census, was published in January, 1963. This Report completes the series of seven county volumes to be published on the 1961 Census. It is generally consistent in design and scope with the Reports already published for Belfast County Borough and the Counties of Antrim, Armagh, Down, Fermanagh and Londonderry. The statistics therein supersede those in the Preliminary Report and may be accepted as final. Althoiogh details of population and habitable buildings in respect of townlands in rural districts are not given in the coun^ty volumes, the figures, for which a charge may be made depending on the extent of the information required, are available on.application to the General Register Office. A General Report will follow the county volumes. It will summarize for the whole country the information in the county volumes and, in some respects, deal with it in greater detail. The General Report will also contain certain additional information, including that on persons with scientific and technological qualifica­ tions, which has not been analysed on a county basis. There will be a separate Report on the Fertility of Marriage. General Register Office, Fermanagh House, Ormeau Avenue, Belfast, 2.

Foreshore is excluded. Acreages of areas covered by the larger rivers, lakes and tideways are also excluded from the body of Tables 4 and 5, but the total is given in a footnote thereto. POPULATION The 1961 Census population comprises all living persons, irrespective of their usual address or nationality, who sp^ent Census night in the area of entimeration. Members of the Armed Forces (including those of Commonwealth and foreign countries except personnel aboard foreign naval vessels) are included. Persons travelling on Census night were enumerated with the population of the district in which they arrived the next day unless they had. already been enumerated elsewhere. Persons on vessels at moorings or anchorage' in Northern Ireland waters or aboard ships on coastwise voyage to Northern Ireland ports were counted as part of the population of the district containing the mooring, anchorage or arrival port. Except where otherwise stated, figures quoted in respect of previous Censuses relate to areas as constituted at the respective Census dates. It should be noted that there were no changes, affecting Census statistics, in the constitution or boundaries of administrative areas in the County during the last intercensal period. ADMINISTBATIVE DIVISIONS The County is divided into ten administrative areas - four urban districts and "six rural districts. Three of the urban districts are divided into wards which form the territorial units for local council elections; in the remaining urban area, the entire district is the unit for municipal elections. In rural districts, the units are the district electoral divisions of which there are 134. The County is also divided into twenty seven county electoral divisions which are the units for county council election purposes. There are five parliamentary constituencies for elections to the Northern Ireland Parliament. For elections to the United Kingdom Parliament, part of the County is combined with County Fermanagh to form one constituency and the remainder is combined with Magherafelt Rural District (in County Londonderry) to form another constituency. BUILDINGS FOR HABITATION For enumeration record purposes, a building was broadly defined as a structure comprising one or more rooms or oth^r spaces enclosed within external or party walls. A structure detached from but subsidiary'to a main building was regarded as part of the main building unless it contained residential accommodation normally occupied by a separate household. Non-permanent structures such as huts, shacks and converted railway carriages and mobile structures such as tents and caravans were treated as buildings only if they were occupied on Census night or were some person*s usual residence. Unoccupied structures of wood, asbestos, corrugated iron, etc., used as casual residences, e.g.

  • Killyclogher, Omagh. Co. Tyrone
    Important Information about Zest: Killyclogher, Omagh. Co. Tyrone First of all, we would like to take this opportunity to thank all the generous people of the area who have made it possible for us to deliver our services in the Killyclogher office. Your kindness and generosity are an example to all communities in taking responsibility for addressing the problems of self-harm and suicide. We are extremely grateful for this opportunity. We, at Zest, believe it is important to point out that our office in Killyclogher is a therapy centre and not a drop-in centre. There are 2 reasons for this: 1. Firstly, and the most important reason, is confidentiality. It is essential that all our clients feel safe and that their meetings with us for counselling remain private. This would be very difficult to guarantee if the office was open to the general public on a drop-in basis. 2. Secondly, due to the size of the unit, we are only able to accommodate a small number of people at any given time. However, we can overcome these difficulties. If anyone who wishes to make enquiries for information or who would like to be seen for support, you can telephone the Derry office on 028 71 266999 an appointment will be given to be seen in Killyclogher. You may also call into the Killyclogher office on Friday mornings between 10.30am and 1.30pm to talk to a staff member. We can also arrange to meet small groups at any time, outside of the therapy times. We currently have 4 counsellors seeing clients in Killyclogher, 2 counsellors on Wednesdays and 2 on Thursdays (from 9.00am – 4.00pm each day).

    Investigation Report The RUC handling of certain intelligence and its relationship with Government Communications Headquarters in relation to the Omagh Bomb on 15 August 1998 Public Statement by the Police Ombudsman for Northern Ireland arising from a referral by the Chief Constable, in accordance with Section 62 of the Police (Northern Ireland) Act 1998 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 On 4 May 2010, I received a Referral from the Chief Constable of the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) concerning a number of specific matters relating to the manner in which the Royal Ulster Constabulary (RUC) Special Branch handled both intelligence and its relationship with Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ) in relation to the Omagh Bombing on 15 August 1998. The referral originated from issues identified by the House of Commons Northern Ireland Affairs Committee. 1.2 In 2013 the Chief Constable made a further Referral to my Office in connection with the findings of a report commissioned by the Omagh Support and Self Help Group (OSSHG) in support of a full Public Inquiry into the Omagh Bombing. The report identified and discussed a wide range of issues, including a reported tripartite intelligence led operation based in the Republic of Ireland involving American, British and Irish Agencies, central to which was a named agent. It suggested that intelligence from this operation was not shared prior to, or with those who subsequently investigated the Omagh Bombing. 1 1.3 On 12 September 2013 the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, Theresa Villiers M.P. issued a statement explaining that there were not sufficient grounds to justify a further inquiry beyond those that had already taken place.

  • The Lord Morrow of Clogher Valley MLA
    The Lord Morrow of Clogher Valley MLA Legal Counsel The Electoral Commission 3 Burnhill Row London EC1Y 8YZ 10th March 2015 Dear Sir/Madam In line with the Electoral Commission’s policy, this is notification to appeal the decision of the Chief Electoral Officer for Northern Ireland to close Moygashel Polling Station, in the constituency of Fermanagh-South Tyrone. This decision will undoubtedly result in fewer people voting at a time when the electorate are being urged to use their franchise. It also demonstrates differential treatment in this constituency. A polling station, in a predominately nationalist area, in which electoral staff were intimidated in keeping open longer than it should, has been was never subject to the sanction proposed for Moygashel. The Chief Electoral Officer’s decision is I believe irrational, unreasonable and discriminatory, and will result in voter suppression in what is the most marginal Westminster constituency in Northern Ireland and the United Kingdom. Michelle Gildernew MP has led a campaign for the closure of this Polling Station. It should be remembered that she holds the seat of Fermanagh-South Tyrone by a mere four votes and only after a re-court (having lost the first count). The closure of this Polling Station in a predominantly Unionist community and transfer of voting to a more distant and inappropriate site, is to push down the Unionist vote in the constituency. An Act of Voter Suppression Part of Sinn Fein’s campaign involved making a series of claims and accusations about events at the polling stations. A number of these allegations fell when subjected to the scrutiny of a court of law.

  • A Seed Is Sown 1884-1900 (1) Before the GAA from the Earliest Times, The
    A Seed is Sown 1884-1900 (1) Before the GAA From the earliest times, the people of Ireland, as of other countries throughout the known world, played ball games'. Games played with a ball and stick can be traced back to pre-Christian times in Greece, Egypt and other countries. In Irish legend, there is a reference to a hurling game as early as the second century B.C., while the Brehon laws of the preChristian era contained a number of provisions relating to hurling. In the Tales of the Red Branch, which cover the period around the time of the birth of Christ, one of the best-known stories is that of the young Setanta, who on his way from his home in Cooley in County Louth to the palace of his uncle, King Conor Mac Nessa, at Eamhain Macha in Armagh, practised with a bronze hurley and a silver ball. On arrival at the palace, he joined the one hundred and fifty boys of noble blood who were being trained there and outhurled them all single-handed. He got his name, Cuchulainn, when he killed the great hound of Culann, which guarded the palace, by driving his hurling ball through the hound's open mouth. From the time of Cuchulainn right up to the end of the eighteenth century hurling flourished throughout the country in spite of attempts made through the Statutes of Kilkenny (1367), the Statute of Galway (1527) and the Sunday Observance Act (1695) to suppress it. Particularly in Munster and some counties of Leinster, it remained strong in the first half of the nineteenth century.

    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.
