Urney parish straddles the Tyrone and Donegal county boundary. Located a couple of kilometres across the boundary into Co. Donegal, Alt Church was attended by many Presbyterian families residing in townlands within Co. Tyrone. Many farming families held leases in both counties.
The condition of the original records, a degree of difficulty in discerning the handwriting and at times, poor quality of filming make transcription challenging and wherever possible the Urney (1827) & Donaghmore (Co. Donegal) (1815 & 1826) tithe applotment books and Griffiths Valuation (1858) have been consulted for confirmation of families and townland addresses.
