I am trying to find information on 3 women in the Christopher Smyth family.  They had a farm in Copney.  The family attended St. Columbkille's Church in Carrickmore.  I am still trying to find a name and information on Christopher Smyth's wife.  Christopher had 2 sons Alexander and Samuel.  I am looking for any information on Samuel's wife, Eliza Barrett Smyth and on their daughter, Rachel Smyth.

    You may want to have a look at the Tithe Applotments and Griffiths Valuation (both free online) for Smyth / Smith in Aughnareggan

    None of either spelling in Tyrone in the 1851 Irish Census but there are 121 in the 1841 http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/
