Towns Of Ulster Families, 1691-1718

**from appendix VI of Scotch Irish Pioneers in Ulster and America

by Charles Knowles Bolton(1910)

Since the ministers of dissenting congregations had little or no legal standing during the earliest years of the emigration to New England their records of births, marriages and death do not appear to have been preserved, except in isolated cases. But the records of presbytery and synod were kept with great care, and the latter have been printed to the year 1820. They give the name of the ruling elder in each congregation for the year of the general synod, and often the names of commissioners sent to the synod to represent local interests. Names of witnesses in cases which came before the synod also help to establish the home towns of Presbyterian families. Names of Ulster towns are usually given here as they are spelled in the records.

R. E. means Ruling Elder

C, stands for Commissioner

W. stands for Witness

P. means petitioner
