Partial List, Parish of Dromore - 1666

Transcribed & submitted by Janet Flemming

Transcribed from: Notes of Dromore Parish, Co Tyrone by P.O. Gallachair Part One General History

The first list of Dromore Parishioners available is of those who paid the hearth tax in 1666, when the parish population was only a few hundred at the most. A tax of 2 shillings on every hearth and fire-place. Of fifty-six Dromore taxpayers then, only eight or nine had foreign names, showing how few colonists resided there then. The surnames also are mainly the same as we find in the parish to this day.(Day Notes were written) Apart from a modernising of the spellings of the townland names, BUT NOT THE SURNAMES, this is a copy of the original tax list:
