Tomy,
        Griffiths Valuation (a survey of all property in Ireland between 1847 and 1864) gives two Harvey families in Listamlet in 1860. Bernard, renting a small farm of about 6 acres and James renting another small farm of about 13 acres. Their landlord was Lord Charlemont. See http://www.askaboutireland.ie/griffith-valuation/

Regards

There are both Fees and Harvey in the townland of Listamlet in 1901 and 1911-

A Peter Harvey was born to unmarried couple father Peter and mother Catherine Fee and baptised in November 1859 in Dungannon Tyrone.  The address at the time was the workhouse.
