Hello Kiltaglassan,
I agree with your comments,
However the spelling i originally used came from the  Enniskillen Chronicle and Erne Packet were that spelling had be used several times when searching for more family details.
I used it on my first post many years ago,  I used the Derryhillagh spelling soon afterwards.
My Wilsons had the mill at  Derrykeeghan Townland, the spelling of the name  has changed many times, (Derryheean being one, as  my ggg grandparents headstone shows) Next door is Woaghternerry or Waternerry, the sign to the little township is the first one.
regards
Colin
