Histories |
This section of the Web site holds
the family histories of several contributors. The histories are
presented in several differing forms, - simple descendency trees, descendency

| Names
Being Researched |
This section of the Web site lists
the PRINCIPAL names being researched, and links them, in turn, to the
people carrying out the research.
|
| Reports
|
This section of the Web site is
provided to hold reports on Nicholl family members, which may be of interest
to a wider audience. Where, for instance, a genealogical report
has been commissioned by a professional research organisation by an individual,
then the individual may want to share the contents of that report with
other researchers. We would like to encourage as many people as
possible to share their information with us.

| Census
Data |
Fragments of information may be
obtained from miscellaneous Census data. Although all of the Irish
census data that would be of invaluable help to genealogists has been
lost or destroyed, some fragments of the 1851 Census for County Antrim
remain. These are presented on this site. Additionally,
there are extracts from the 1871 Canadian Census which refer to the people
with the name "Nicholl" (or derivatives) and who were of Irish origin.
|
| Names and
Naming |
There are several versions as
to how the surname "Nicholl" (and its derivatives) are derived, - with
especial emphasis on the Irish derivation. Also presented is the
convention whereby Irish children were named after their ancestors in
the nineteenth century.

| LDS Films
|
The Church of Jesus Christ of
the Latter Day Saints (LDS) have vast numbers of microfilms available

at your nearest LDS Family History Centre. Contributors to this
Web site have catalogued a large number of films which should help you
researching your ancestors in Ireland.

Centuries. This section of the web site is reserved for contributions
