I  found Drumlyn Hill on a map years ago, but the map was very hard to work with. I remember it somewhere in the Tullylish/Donaghcloney area, but see some on-line references to Guilford.  Would you list nearby townlands to make an easier search and list some descendents?  I have several George's in the 1800's and may be able to find earlier ones.
