1766 Religious Census OLIVERs

The only portion of this census for Co. Armagh - that survived - was the part from Creggan Parish, some of which is on my site. None of the pages for Co. Monaghan have survived. In this census, the term “Protestant” included the names of men who were both Church of Ireland and Protestant dissenters, such as Presbyterian.

Name	Religion	Parish	Diocese	County	Townland	Notes
James Oliver	Protestant	Aghalow & Carnteel	Armagh	Tyrone		WIKI: The church at Carnteel was destroyed in the Irish Rebellion of 1641 and replaced with a church at Aghaloo, itself replaced after the building of a church in Aughnacloy in 1736. NOTE: The parish is on the River Blackwater, and the OLIVERs likely lived here because of their family’s involvement in the linen industry.
