Yes, that is correct.  Although I thought his name was Stewart not Stuart.  Do you have contact information for him?

Hello, I'm new to the forum and noticed Killyman mentioned. In 2010 I met with Wilfred Dilworth there who has done extensive research in the area and published writings about tge history of Killyman. The email I had for him no longer works and he might be traced through St. Andrew's Church in Killyman.

As on my other reply a good source for Northern Ireland genealogical information is the Belfast forum. In 2010 it linked me up with Wilfred Dilworth in Killyman. I've never been able to track down some of his Killyman history publications and I'm no longer in touch with him.

If it is the book Around and About Killyman you are looking for, have you tried reaching out to  https://en-gb.facebook.com/representingthetamnamorecommunity/ and asking if they know if copies of the book can still be obtained?

Thanks. I'll try that source. When I was there in 2010 there was a library at the Ulster Folk Park focused on genealogical searches and I may try again through them. They knew Wilfred Dilworth although didn’t have any of his publications and may now or know where I could get them. I think that one might be available digitally.

Yes and within that you'll find the Mellon Center for Migration Studies https://mellonmigrationcentre.com/. The focus seems to be on North American Migration although lots of NI links. As mentioned in another post in 2010 I got most of the information I needed from the Belfast forum genealogy section. In fact if you put Ulster genealogy in Google all kinds of forum links come up. This one looks like a good overall resource for NI https://www.familysearch.org/en/wiki/Northern_Ireland_Genealogy
My personal focus these days is on Canadian family roots.
