Urney Presbyterian Church (Urney Parish) Marriages 1845-55
Registration District of Strabane, (that section within Co. Tyrone)
Extracted from various FHL films of Civil Registration of Irish Marriages

Urney is a very old congregation; the first recorded minister was the REV. JAMES WALLACE who was installed in 1654. Urney Presbyterian congregation was linked with Sion Mills in 1881.

Surviving records of this congregation have been microfilmed by PRONI: Baptisms 1837-81; Marriages 1866-1881 (PRONI Ref. MIC.1P/250)

The condition of the original records, a degree of difficulty in discerning the handwriting and times, poor quality of filming make transcription challenging and wherever possible the Urney tithe applotment book (1827) and Griffiths Valuation (1858) have been consulted for confirmation of families and townland addresses.
