Genealogy Records

The O’Neill Country Historical Society has researched and published a large amount of material useful to Genealogists and people researching their family history in the Blackwater Valley area of Counties Armagh and Tyrone.

The articles from our Journals which would be of interest to Genealogists and family Historians are listed on this page and can be purchased if not out of print.

You can also contact our Genealogist Mr Dessie Gildernew who may be able to assist you with family history enquires at d.gildernew@btinternet.com.
