Hello Listers, This item may be interesting to someone: Tyrone Constitution, July 4 1856 A TRIO OF OLD FRIENDS. – In the vicinity of Benburb, three of the “oldest inhabitants” went the way of all the earth during the last month. On the 16th ultimo, at Lisbawnleminagh, near Benburb, Mr. PATRICK McSHERRY, aged 90 years. – On the 17th at Anagarson, Clonfeacle, near Benburb, Mr. DANIEL CONROY, aged 82 years. On the 20th at Lisgubbin, near Benburb, Mr. BERNARD McRORY, aged 80 years. These three patriarchs dwelt within a call of each other, and were always on the most intimate terms of friendship from their earliest years to the latest period of their lives. Their advanced ages speak well for the salubrity of the locality.
N.B. The tithe applotment book for Clonfeacle parish (1833) https://cotyroneireland.com/tithe/t-a-clonfeacle.html records PATT. McSHERRY at Lisbanleminigh and BERNARD McCRORY at Lisbubbin. Anagansa was a glebe and did not attract tithes so no record of DANIEL CONROY. Perhaps a researcher may recognise a forebear in this useful and interesting item as it predates the introduction of civil registration of deaths by eight years.
