  St. Dymphna's/Dympna's  RCC in Dromore, Tyrone: Hughes, Coll, McCanney/McKenna & McGuigan.

 Can't figure out what parish on here St. Dymphna's would fall under?  My Hughes family were from Aughee and my Coll (I blieve) were from Cornamuck as I have McCarron cousins still there today.

  We assume that all of my great great grandparents are buried in the Old St. Dymphna's Church Graveyard - we know defintiely that Mr. and Mrs. Owen (Ellen Coll) Hughes are buried here.

  Can someone help me figure out what parish listing this would fall under?  Thanks - Mike

    The current RC church of Dromore is St. Davog's, built in the 1980's. St. Dympna's is the old church and Grave yards (two of them). I was given this information by Tim McQuaid who has a very thurough website entailing his search for family in Dromore. See the link below.

  • Thanks Tim - I had visited both curches last OCtober when I was in Tyrone and have relatives bruied in both cemeteries.  It's just that on this iste and any other, I can't find the parish listed as either St. Dympna's or Nymphna's nor St. Davog's.  I've actually posted on Find A grave in both cemeteries. Thanks for the info - Mike
