Historical Records

First Magherafelt Historical Records

If you are wanting to trace family who have lived in Magherafelt in the past and were Presbyterian it is possible that our church records could be helpful.

However these records are held in Belfast in two locations :-

Some Early records are held by the Presbyterian historical society who can be contacted as detailed on their web site

http://www.presbyterianireland.org/phsi/

They hold records of Baptism from 1703-1706 and 1771-1780

And records of marriages from 1769-1782

The rest of our historical records are held at the Public records office in Belfast

http://www.proni.gov.uk/ where they have been microfilmed.

We hope this is of assistance to you.
