Hi Alison,

Thanks so much for sending these records to the list. 
It is a great addition.

I recently was looking at a book (Ancestry.com)written
about the Boltons of Ulster (Lismoyle primarily) by
Charles Knowles Bolton.  Somehow, he had access to
poll books dated 1801 and 1806 for Tamlaght O'Crilly
as well as the 1821 Census (which had much more
information than the 1831 had!).  It made me realized
how much we are missing on our families by not having
these early records.  He, however, did not use any of
the church records. I don't know why. Many of his
dates could have been more accurate with them. 
Hopefully, all or some of us will eventually come
across some previously written document that made use
of these early records before they were destroyed.
