These OS maps are great, Elwyn, but I generally use the Griffith maps
from mid-19thC, which are probably based on the OS maps anyway, but are
in colour!!! and one can ghost the old onto the modern maps with the
slider. I also find them slightly easier to use.

I found the actual house that my ancestors lived in from Griffith and
then used Google Earth to 'drive' along the virtual roads where they
lived. Almost as good as being there! Sadly their farmhouse ain't there
any more. :(

Susan,
You might find the historical maps on the PRONI website helpful:
https://apps.spatialni.gov.uk/PRONIApplication/
There’s a whole set of maps of Tyrone (and the rest of Northern Ireland)
with the oldest dating to 1832. You can switch between them to compare the
changes through the years.
There’s a button for the map viewer tour on the top right hand side of the
screen. Probably worth starting with it. It explains what all the buttons
do.

Hello Susan,
The set of Co Donegal maps created by Bob Hilchey are unique to that
county only. Sadly, there is nothing remotely close to the detail they
contain elsewhere (and freely available online):
CIVIL PARISHES and TOWNLAND MAPS
And maps of BARONIES and ECCLESLIASTICAL divisions, and additionally,
each parish map indicates which POOR LAW UNION they fall within. Bob
Hilchey’s maps are essential for Co. Donegal research.
As Jim advised, there is a complete set of free online parish maps
(indicating each townland) for Co. Tyrone on CTI, but they follow a
different format to that compiled by Bob Hilchey.
