Notes on these records
These pages contain all the information available about the Crumlish family of Inishowen, which can be found in the Registers of Births, Marriages and Deaths in Ireland between 1864 and 1900. These indicies contain a note of the event, and the reference number needed to obtain a formal birth,marriage or death certificate.
These pages cover the events which occurred in the Inishowen Registration District. This information was researched through the Church of the Latter Day Saints online index to Irish Births, Marriages and Deaths between 1864 and 1958.
The birth and marriage records cover those exact years. However, the death records cover those who died during this period, and those who were born during the period, and died subsequently in Inishowen. The death records cover the period 1789 to 1951, but outside the core dates of 1864 to 1900 are not necessarily complete. These records will enable researchers to go back further in time than the Catholic Parish records (started in 1847) and the Civil records (1864) in their quest for family information.
Care should be taken in relying on the ages quoted on the death certificates death, and estimated year of birth. They are only estimates. Please also bear in mind, too, that although the requirement to register births, marriages and deaths became a legal requirement in 1864 it was not strictly obeyed, particularly in rural districts, for a number of years!
Crumlish family history
The direct Crumlish line can be traced back to 1800, with the birth of a John Crumlish. By the time of the 1851 Census, he was living in Mossyglen with his wife and family.
The surname Crumlish (and it's variants Crimlisk and Crumlisk) is an anglicised version of the Gaelic Ó Cromruisc, meaning "drooped eye". The earliest recorded mention of the name is with Diermond, Owen and Nile Grome Ó Cromruske in the 1609 State Pardon List. The pardons would probably have been received, after capture, for the part they played in Sir Cahir O'Doherty's uprising against the English in 1608, and his sack of Derry.
The surname O'Crumrisk is also found in the Hearth Money Rolls of 1665 in Inishowen, although it is not placed in Moville. A William O'Crumrisk was listed as living in the parish of Clonmany, and a Donall O'Crumrisk lived in Donagh.
By the time of the earliest of the currently remaining land records, the Tithe Applotment Lists (1825), the Crimlisk family are found as farmers in "An Gleann", the townlands of Mossyglen, Glennagivney and Meenletterbale. In 1857 in the Primary Valuation of Tenements (“Griffith's Valuation”) they are also to be found in the same three townlands.
