• General Notes

  Source = 1901 census.
  1st Kilrea Presbyterian Church Communicants Roll Book shows: "Mrs Thos Gordon (Ina), Lislea".  The Ina in brackets is the minister's addition, NOT mine.  In other words, the wife of Thomas Gordon was known locally as Ina Gordon.  She continues to appear on the page 1919-32, but I did not record exactly when she appeared.  Maiden name from civil record of marriage.

  - Thomas Gordon Sr is scored out of Plots 25 & 26 to James Gordon (Deaf), no date given.  There is also a note in the margin that says, "James Gordon (Deaf) See Guardians Book 79"  I have no idea what this means.  However, I am assuming that James Gordon (Deaf) is the brother of my great great grandfather, John Gordon.  1st Kilrea Presbyterian Church refers to to a "Deaf James" in its Communicants Roll book.
  - New byre built in 1889 increasing buildings rate from 30 shillings to 40 shillings
  - Jas Gordon (Deaf) scored out to Thomas Gordon (?Land Side?) in 1897 and he in turn scored out to Thomasina Gordon in 1905.  This fits with James dyring before 1901 and his son Thomas taking over and dying himself in 1903, at which point his wife, Thomasina acquired the farm.
  - No changes til the books end in 1929.
