Hello Karen
I suggest you contact Killeeshil/Clonaneese Historical Society, they may well
be able to help with the Tullyvannon family links, and maybe others. Many of
their members are also members of the South Tyrone Family History Society.
Here is the link to the historical society -you will find contact details there

Happy hunting

My thanks to Elwyn Soutter and Janet Fairless for their suggestions on how to
proceed in searching for James Ewing (1803-1847) married to Elizabeth Bell (abt
1808-1842). Since I know so little of their history I’ve been focusing on
William Ewing and his wife, Margery Hopper, two people who were closely
associated with my ancestors in the town of Newton Hamilton, Mifflin,
Pennsylvania, US. Ideally I can find an area in County Tyrone with Ewing, Bell
and Hopper families as a place to begin. Elwyn pointed out that there is no
Tullyvannon in the Parish of Errigal Keerogue, Tyrone. I had copied an error
in another researcher’s post without checking it first. As Elwyn also points
out, James and Elizabeth Bell EWING left Northern Ireland by 1826, and church
and civil records may not exist for the time period.
The correct locations mentioned for Denny Hopper, father-in-law of William
Ewing in Newton Hamilton, are birth in Armalgughey, Civil Parish of Carnteel,
County Tyrone; marriage in Ballygawley, Civil Parish of Errigal Keerogue,
Tyrone; and then Tullyvannon, Civil Parish of Killeeshil, County Tyrone, where
he resided later on. I don’t have any locations more specific for his
son-in-law, William Ewing, than County Tyrone.
Thank you, Janet, for starting the idea that family members did not always
follow each other when they immigrated. That was not something I had
considered.
