The author's purpose in compiling this volume was to show beyond any doubt the magnitude of the Irish involvement in the founding of the United States. To that end he discusses the various causes of Irish immigration, both voluntary and involuntary, and proceeds to identify at least six hundred Irish men and women who were in America before 1700.

The name Smith, for example, could have been used interchangeably with Gowan, Goan, Gow, McGowan, or O'Gowan; each of these representing the Anglicized form of the Irish word gobha-a smith.

Quite simply, American Independence could not have been won without the vital, widespread, and timely contributions-military, political, and economic-of the Irish from 1775 to 1783. To demonstrate the widespread extent of the Irish contribution and its importance in winning final victory, this work has focused on the long-overlooked achievements of the Irish in such important battles as Trenton, Kings Mountain, and Cowpens, which were key turning points of the American Revolution. However, because of long pervasive anti-Irish sentiment in America and because the Irish of the colonial period became thoroughly Americanized after the war, the key role played by the Irish throughout the war years has become one of the most forgotten and overlooked stories of the American Revolution. Indeed, ample new evidence has revealed that nearly half of George Washington's Continental Army consisted of Irish soldiers at key moments of the American Revolution, including at Valley Forge. Year after year, the Irish served not only as the nucleus, but also as the very foundation of Washington's Army, helping to ensure its survival during a lengthy war of attrition. Ironically, the disproportionately high percentage of Irish who served in the ranks of Washington's Continental Army was a fact well-known to both sides during the war years, but was quickly forgotten once the conflict ended, ensuring that the vital contributions of the Irish would be left out of the pages of American history. The latest scholarly research and much primary source material, especially from colonial period newspaper accounts, have been incorporated into this work to reveal the forgotten contributions and achievements of the Irish on all levels during the course of the American Revolution.

Therefore, the first step in any Irish research for the first half of the 19th century and before should be to identify the religious denomination and parish of your ancestor. Although any of the Townland Indexes from 1851, 1871, or 1901 will show the location of each civil parish (which generally corresponds to the boundaries of the Church of Ireland parishes), it has been much more difficult to uncover the corresponding Catholic parish or Presbyterian congregation.

To aid the researcher in identifying the precise location of the administrative divisions, and thus their jurisdiction, Mr. Mitchell has drawn at least four, and sometimes five, maps for every county.

The Albins portrayed in this narrative generally lacked fame and wealth; however, many were adventurous, and most were industrious as they sought to make a better life for themselves and their children. The unanticipated voyage of four young Albin orphans (James Albin III, Elizabeth Albin, John Albin and William Albin) from Ireland to America in the early 1720s altered the family chronicle forever. One of these orphans, William Albin, was the author's fifth great grandfather. On a broader scale, once these four took their first uncertain steps on English colonial soil in southeastern Pennsylvania, they and their successors played an unheralded, yet meaningful role in the development of a maturing colonial America and then later in the fabric of the expanding United States. Their gradual, decades-long, westward shift paralleled that of a young America as it expanded its own borders westward during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

Owing to spelling variations, these histories apply to an additional 57 common surnames for the region (e.g., variant spellings of Doherty include Daugherty, Docherty, Dockerty, Dogerty, Dogherty, Dorrety, Dougherty, O'Doagharty, O'Dochartaigh, O'Doghartye, O'Dogherty, and O'Doherty); as a matter of fact, Mr. Mitchell estimates that these histories document the surname origins of over 80% of people with roots in North West Ireland.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAs the author explains in his Introduction, surnames of Gaelic Irish origin frequently confirm membership of a sept.

Seeking to escape wretchedness at home and to find better lives for themselves and their children, thousands of O Callaghans (most identified as Callaghans) took part in this diaspora.

By comparison, significant numbers of Irish people could already be found in the English colonies in the West Indies, and to a limited degree in the Dutch West Indies. By the early 18th century, however, the Irish were the largest immigrant group to settle in the thirteen American colonies. During this period, most immigrants to America were Presbyterians from the north of Ireland, though this would change dramatically in the 19th century. The greatest Irish exodus to America occurred between the end of the Napoleonic Wars in 1815 and the conclusion of the potato famine in 1851. During that span around one million left Ireland, mainly for North America, but also in smaller numbers for Australia, as well as for the industrializing towns of Britain.

Each name in this book has at least ten listings in the Foyle directory.

Derry's unique historical background, including the impact upon surnames of the 17th-century Plantation of Ulster, also comes into play.

In the 18th, 19th, and early 20th centuries, the city of Derry was a major port of embarkation for Irish emigrants, and County Derry, in northernmost Ulster, was populated by persons of Gaelic Irish, Gaelic Scottish, Lowland Scottish, and English origins-any number of whom would take part in the exodus to the Americas, Great Britain, and Australasia. \u003ci\u003eTracing Derry-Londonderry Roots\u003c\/i\u003e recounts Derry's importance in Irish emigration and explains how it impacts genealogical research for the area.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book is divided into three main parts. The introductory chapters discuss the fundamentals of genealogical research, such as reviewing family papers and gathering family reminiscences, before emphasizing the importance of place or locality in all of Irish research. In Derry's case, this means ascertaining the name of the townland(s) your forebears came from in order to utilize the treasure trove of Irish records that can shed light on the people who lived there. The meat of the book consists of a review of the main record sources for Derry genealogy, including civil registers of births, marriages, and deaths; church registers of baptisms, marriages, and burials; gravestone inscriptions; wills; 1901 and 1911 census returns; mid-19th-century Griffith's Valuation; early 19th-century Tithe Applotment Books; the 1831 census; and pre-1800 census substitutes. Brian Mitchell explains where you can find these sources (including Internet sources) before launching into a discussion of the main Irish record repositories for Derry ancestry research. He concludes with a detailed treatment of all the local record offices \"including the Mellon Centre for Migration Studies at Ulster American Folk Park, the Foyle Family History Centre, and the Derry City Council: Archive and Genealogy Service\" and with a review of the national repositories that hold Derry sources, such as the General Register Office Northern Ireland, Belfast; the National Archives of Ireland, Dublin; and the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland, Belfast.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThoroughly up-to-date with respect to online and offline research, this invaluable resource written by one of Ireland's leading genealogists will appeal to Derry-Londonderry researchers from all corners of the globe.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrian Mitchell\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2014, paper, 66 pp.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN: 9780806356952\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e102-8364\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GPC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39249822122102,"sku":"102-8364","price":20.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1654\/3033\/files\/102-8364.png?v=1727805868"},{"product_id":"102-8366","title":"The Place Names of County Derry","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Place Names of County Derry\u003c\/i\u003e consists of two parts.

Against each place name (i.e., townland or town and street) is recorded the following information: District Electoral Division, Parish, Registrar District, Poor Law Union, and 17th-Century Landowner. Knowing the record jurisdictions for place names will result in more effective use of major Irish record sources such as 1901 and 1911 census returns; church registers; civil registers of births, marriages, and deaths; the national indexes to civil birth, marriage, and death registers; and estate records.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePart Two, County Derry Parish Reports, features record sources-both civil and church-of value to family historians, compiled and recorded by parish.

The strength of this book as a guide is its exceptional explanations of not only the usual Irish genealogy records but also of some that are mentioned less often in other works, such as those of Petty Court Sessions, workhouses, and prisons. For methods' instruction, its worth is twofold. It goes to some length about how to effectively search within Ireland's resources, whether online or at sites. A major aspect is its repeated discussion of further steps to research after obtaining results from each of the record types, that is, \"If you find this, then look here or here next.\" This facet of how to successfully search and what to do with the material discovered is not often found or explained well in most other genealogy texts.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSo, what is so special about this presentation of Irish genealogy research? Breadth of coverage of helpful details is provided. All the usual sources are contained: censuses and census substitutes, church records, civil registrations, cemeteries and tombstones, estates, taxes, deeds, and voters' lists. Some sources often neglected are included that are a must in any thorough Irish investigatory project because of the loss of nineteenth-century censuses and the late start of church registers for most of the Catholic Irish population: voters' lists and records of workhouses, prisons, and Petty Court Sessions. To make searching these papers more productive, Radford incorporated an exhaustive inventory of resources to explore as well as helpful directories. Included are religious denominations that might be considered minor; lists of early, often-forgotten occupations; situating Church of Ireland diocesan courts into their respective counties; examples of fair towns and fair dates in County Leitrim; and detailed lists of mills by location and types of key mines, prisons by location and type, principal destinations for prisoner transportation by date and current names, and historical terms with definitions relating to hangings, land measurements, and land records. Radford's review of Griffith's Valuation and associated manuscripts is one of the best to be found.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAll the information in the above mentioned sources is useless if researchers do not know what to do with what they find. The answer to this dilemma is what clearly sets Radford's work apart. The methods aspect of the book is extensive and its strongest point. Radford repeatedly suggests how the researcher should utilize the search results from each source for the most rewards. Time and again, he starts with \"If you know …, search this way in this record type.\" Then he proceeds by showing \"If you found …, look here next.\" He ends with chapters on strategies that focus in depth on how to handle the vagaries of Irish names, tying families together through name distribution surveys, how to find the ancestral homesites, and how to navigate the perplexities of online databases This sort of guidance is seldom found in other genealogy works.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eResearch strategies combined with painstaking document evaluations make this an excellent teaching tool for Irish researchers of any competence.

The information herein is limited to Ulster, where most Scots-Irish were born, and mainly underscores records and strategies from the U.S. that will assist in proving or at least indicating the birthplace of an ancestor from that province.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe historic province of Ulster includes counties on both sides of the post-1921 border, which today separates Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. They are Antrim (NI), Armagh (NI), Cavan (IRE), Donegal (IRE), Down (NI), Fermanagh (NI), Londonderry (Derry) (NI), Monaghan (IRE), and Tyrone (NI). The focus of this book is on non-Catholic families, because the majority of what is termed Scots-Irish or Ulster-Scots belonged to a denomination not of the Catholic tradition. Yet most people think of the Ulster-Scots as being Presbyterians, which is also a little narrow. Many came as Anglicans, Brethren (Plymouth) and Gospel Hall, Methodists, Moravians, Mormons, and Quakers. The people who did arrive as Presbyterians became unchurched for a couple of generations on the frontiers of the U.S. because few, if any, clergy or schools were in a number of areas. The Scots-Irish would convert to or reunite with the Presbyterian Church during the revivals on the frontiers, leaving the impression that they always had been Presbyterian.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSearch tactics are indispensable in finding answers to investigations as difficult as those for the Scots-Irish and other groups. \u003cem\u003eAmerican Scots-Irish Research: Strategies and Sources in the Quest for Ulster-Scots Origins\u003c\/em\u003e concentrates on strategies. When researchers know how to use documents effectively, even some with no apparent relevance can be helpful. As an example, tax books do not have birthplaces, and so novices probably would not look at them. For seasoned researchers and as his mentors taught him, tax rolls can be a most important tool for discerning who is who, and where and when they were living.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis is not a book for those seeking effortless answers. It is intended to disclose research strategies that perhaps have not been considered before. Dwight asks that researchers not think in linear terms. If Scots-Irish research, especially in the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, were easy, the place of origin in Ulster would have been found long ago. Linear thinking, which seems to promote the notion of the existence of a document stating a place of birth when, in fact, it was never created, typically will hinder research and waste time. In most cases, an entry noting where someone was born in the 1700s is not in an archive in either Ireland or Northern Ireland. Therefore, it remains a U.S. research problem. The assertion is not that Irish sources cannot be used effectively, but that records of births for documenting most Ulster-Scots during the 1700s are scarce. For 1800s immigrants, registers of birthplaces may be in Ulster. The same is true from the U.S. side of the research process, yet even that depends on the period, the sources, and the circumstances in which a family found itself.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis volume outlines and details the tactics that may be necessary to find your Scots-Irish place of origin.

It was the administrative capital from which the English kings ruled or attempted to control the island of Ireland. The population of Dublin at that time has been estimated to have been in the region of 7,500; however, over the next two centuries-which was a period of relative prosperity and economic development-the population expanded to about 70,000 by 1700 and reached 180,000 in 1800. During the 17th century the population was overwhelmingly Protestant, but by the late 18th century the Catholics were in the majority, resulting from the population moving from rural Ireland to Dublin, having been attracted by the economic and social benefits available there. In the 17th century there was an influx into Dublin of Protestants from within Ireland, as well as from England, and in late century French Huguenots and Dutch immigrants arrived as well. These immigrants brought with them industrial and commercial skills that broadened the economic base of Dublin and stimulated the introduction or expansion of the textile industries of linen, wool, and silk weaving, as well as sugar refining and metal work. Dublin in the 18th century was the center of government, commerce, and finance, and was an important entrepot with trade links to the British Isles, Europe, and across the Atlantic.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis genealogical source book by David Dobson identifies some of the inhabitants of Dublin between 1600 and 1800 who would otherwise be difficult to situate.
