Draperstown Presbyterian records (HENDERSON)

[ursularuth]

I am looking for early baptism records from either Draperstown or Tobermore Presbyterian church (abt 1800-civil registration).  I know that some have been transcribed on the Maghera Genealogy site and that the originals are available at Proni but as I can't get to Ireland to look myself, does anyone know if they are available elsewhere on line, or if they are available to buy on fiche/CD as I would English parish records?

Alternatively, if anyone has access to them I would be very grateful for any information on HENDERSON, particularly from Carnamoney/Gortamney.

Many thanks
Ursula

Thanks for the link and reply, KG.  These records may actually cover most of the dates I'm currently looking at.  Do you know if the records are available to consult anywhere except at GRONI/PRONI?

Hi Ursula, I am looking for the same things!. My maternal grandmothers family were Henderson of Carnamoney Co Londonderry. This is a line of tenant farmers also recorded in the flax growers records of Ulster.
 My Great grandmother was Sarah Jane Drennan who married William Henderson in Draperstown. Presbyterian meeting hall.
I think her family may have been Scottish and they disappear soon after 1911 census.
 Sarah Jane married James Henderson and they are on the 1911 census with lots of children. My grandmother was Minnie Henderson who married John Allen in Belfast. I cant track anything more until 1932 when John Allen had a coal business in Fraser Street. I think my mother was born there- can't find her records either.
 The Ulster covenant is a good way to track people in 1912.

Search the Ulster Covenant for both covenant (M) and declaration (F).
