Daughter of Thomas Smyth. NOTE: There is no gravestone record for her, but there is one for: Mary Smyth, eldest daughter of Thomas Smythe of Silverbridge d. 19 Sept 1808. This was one of the headstones in the CORR plot. The stone was weathered, so it could easily have been “Marg.” SOURCE: P18, Guide to Creggan Church & Graveyard.

b. 1753 It is possible that he is the J. GILMORE who married Mary JACKSON (daughter of George JACKSON & Margaret O’LAUGHLIN). It is also possible that he was the father of both Samuel GILMORE (1795-1868) and George GILMORE of Coolderry (d 1832).

Wallace, Anne

Urker Creggan

Age 56

1823, Apr 15

B 1767 NOTE: I believe that this Anne is actually Jane WALLACE née DONALDSON [SOURCE: Creggan: Guide to Creggan Church & Graveyard]. Why she is indicated here as being at Urker, I do not know. No WALLACE shows up there in the 1828 records, but her husband John WALLACE is also recorded as being from Urker, Clogher. Interestingly, I have another “orphan WALLACE”: in 1839, a Richard JACKSON of Tullyvallen married a Mary WALLACE. Since the DONALDSONS who were Anne - aka Jane - WALLACE's parents were also of Tullyvallen, this starts to get even more interesting.

Wallace, John

Urker Creggan

Age 67

Husband of Jane DONALDSON & father of 5 children. Is it possible that although he was of Cloghog, that he died at Urcher? There seem to be two records that I have transcribed. Of course, I may have transcribed in error.

Donaldson, Alice

Urker Creggan

Age 60

1827, Feb 18

B 1767 -daughter of Joseph & Anne Donaldson of Tullyvallen, sister-in-law of James Wallace. NOTE: George JACKSON & Margaret McLAUGHLIN had a daughter named Alice who married an unnamed “LOY”. In later years, the LOWE family made their home at Cloghog Lodge.. There was also an unnamed Alice who married a Samuel DONALDSON (1753-1827 – son of William DONALDSON & Agnes). They probably married about 1780 – given that the births of 6 children start in 1783. The latter is a strong candidate for being this person, but this needs to be verified.

Johnston, Jane

Age 57

1827 Nov 19

b. 1770 The timing would be right for her to be a daughter of Adam Blair JOHNSTON. Another possibility is that she was a wife of John JOHNSTON of Woodvale, and mother of Graham JOHNSTON. See: Johnstons of Woodvale.

Donaldson, Mary

Cloghog

Age 41

b. 1797 Thomas BALL Esq. Corliss was recorded there in 1828. A Lt. Thomas BALL (1642-1674) was one of those granted land in 1669 – including for Corliss. I do not know the relationship between the two men. NOTE: A will of Thomas Ball, of Corlis, in the parish of Creggan, and barony of Upper Fewes, Co. Armagh, mentions wife Ann Ball, als Hamilton; three sons, Abraham, John, and William. Testator had a house in Crossmaglen, and property in Corlis. Exor., John Hamilton of  Crossmaglen. Witnesses, J. Hamilton and Hugh Connor. There was a statue erected to a Thomas BALL, Master in Chancery at St. Patrick's Church Dublin in 1829.

B 1770 There is a possibility that she was a daughter of George JACKSON & Margaret O’LAUGHLIN, although she did marry a WORTHINGTON or a SHEA. The projected date of birth of 1770 would fit. NOTE: There is also another JACKSON family connected to Liscalgot that I have yet to fit in.

Possibly related to John WALLACE (1760-1827)

Gilmore, George

Coolderry

Age 44

1832, Jan 10

B 1788 One place to look for where he might fit is as a son of Mary JACKSON who married a J.GILMORE (since her father was called “George”). SEE: Burials, Gilmore, John 1828 (therefore b. 1788) The argument for this connection is also strengthened by a daughter Mary Jackson GILMORE born to George GILMORE of Coolderry.

Jackson, David

Urker

Age 76 Presiding Rev. John Turner

1889, Nov 13

B 1814. This is the father of Sir Thomas Jackson. NOTE: The minister Rev. John TURNER was not the minister of Creggan, but of Barronstown. It seems he was not hired by the Creggan congregation - a dispute that probably triggered David JACKSON's quitting Creggan congregation for some time (see undated 1885 letter and Dec 2 1885) . Rev. John Turner, Rector of Barronstown, and formerly Headmaster of the Dundalk Educational Institution, was a learned and successful educationalist, and raised the Institute to a very high level in the educational world. On his retirement he officiated at Killencoole, and also was Acting Military Chaplain at Dundalk Barracks, prior to his appointment to Barronstown. His eldest son, Mr. John Wm. Turner, M.A., is the efficient Agent here to Lord Roden; whilst his second son, Mr. Henry Turner, has been Resident Magistrate in the South for many years- Rev. John Turner died 1897.

Widow who died 5 March 1900 granted to Jane Coulter Amelia GILMORE spinster the daughter. Effects ₤155 16s 2d.

Donaldson, Elizabeth

Kiltybane

Age 83

1900, Mar 22

I am guessing that this is Elizabeth Johanna JACKSON – wife of John JACKSON.  If so, it would accord with a confirmation date as well as a christening date of 1817 – the christening done on the day of her father’s death. "Will of Elizabeth Johanna DONALDSON late of Kiltylane [sic] d. 30 March 1900 granted at Armagh to Eliezer GILMORE, farmer. Effects 45 pounds." NOTE: The burial date is before the death date – something is a bit off here.

b. 1804 It is probable he is the one recorded in 1901 Census as being age 92 (I may have misread the 97). He was a retired farmer, and an uncle of John DONALDSON of Cloghog (b 1861). Family all COI.

Age 93

b. 1809 NOTE She is likely the Sarah WRIGHT in the 1901 Census who was age 86 (a discrpancy of 5 years with the parish record). She was born in Co. Louth, and was living with her widowed daughter Margaret in Cregganban, Crossmaglen. Her daughter was a "farmer".

Coulter, Thomas

Dorsay

Age 65

1902, Jul 13

b. 1837 He does not appear in the 1901 Census, although there is a listing for a Robert CAULTER. This is an obvious mistransciption. The pdf makes it clear that it was a Robert (age 54) & Eliza COULTER (age 52) who both lived and farmed in Dorsy. They were no longer there in 1911.

At the time of the 1901 Census he was a visitor at 39 Moyola St., home of Sarah A. Tipping. Andrew Tipping was a boarder there. It all fits.
