Sure...     We have a huge amount of information also so this should be fun!  We followed his sister Alice for ten years and finally found her family too.  Thank you!

I have a whole file on Alexander Robinson of Hester Locke and Alexander Robinson the first.  We may have been in touch years ago.  I made an entire cd for someone and even sent pictures..Was that you?  Anne

Oh, I'm not  LOL I was just enjoying the ride with Google :) No doubt there are many areas with rubble from old  houses, etc.

I found this on Google Books : A Topographical Dictionary of Ireland By Samuel Lewis. 

It was one of the only places I could see reference to NewMills:

The corn and flax-mills belonging to Mr. Young, called the New-Mills, about 1 ½ mile from Glasslough, employ about 20 persons. ( Young, W. B., Esq., New-mills, Glasslough, co. Monaghan)  I wonder if this WB Young is in my family or my WB Young. 

It also had a good bit on the areas you mentioned, so hopefully it will help me get a better grasp on the area. 

Was it common place to name a town land after a mill or a company/business in the area?

Hello,  I see in one of your posts you mention Thomas Robinson with William B. Young.  You found the tithe entries for Tyholland.  I have much on Thomas Robinson and it is Sallymount, not Tallymount.  Sallymount Farm is in the very small Townland of Golree/Gulree, County Monaghan.  We visited there in 2006.  I think Thomas Robinson owned the entire Townland of Golree.  I think the connection with the two men is that they were commissioners for the tithe collections, 1832.  ANNE
