Leases granted per the Registry of Deeds:

The purpose of this section is to list those leases granted by the Lord Viscount or Earl of Charlemont to various of their tenants in the county Tyrone portion of the estate, as recorded in the Registry of Deeds. The list is ordered alphabetically by surname. It is a work-in-progress, complete through volume 161 (as at 2021-07-28). For the full set of index entries submitted by Alison Kilpatrick, visit Nick Reddan’s Registry of Deeds Index Project Ireland website, and input the memorial number into the search page. Please note that the memorial number is actually composed of three sets of numbers: [Volume number]–[Page number]–[Memorial number]. Thus, for search purposes on Nick’s website, the memorial number is the last set of digits. — See also Historical context, below.
