William Greer was born on 23rd April 1843 at Tievenagh Townland, Artrea Parish
He lived there until a dispute with his step-cousin Mary Ann Carson forced him to sell the farm to pay the costs. He moved to poorer farming land at Tamlaght, Kildress in 1899. He took out a morgage for �75 to buy the farm.
He died in 1920 and the farm passed to Frederick Greer.
