Scots’ Church congregation was established in 1842; the first minister was the Rev. Matthew Logan (a native of Kilmacrenan, Co. Donegal), ordained in 1842, who remained at Gortin until his death in 1884.
Surviving records of this congregation have been microfilmed by the staff of PRONI, Belfast where they may be consulted:
Baptisms, 1843-1985; Marriages 1844-1935; Session Minutes 1842-81; Census of Congregation, 1843; Lists of emigrants 1854-84; Communion Attendances 1843-66; Index to Baptisms 1842-71; Index to Marriages 1844-70. PRONI Ref: MIC1P/253; T/1629
The condition of the original records, a degree of difficulty in discerning the handwriting and quality of filming make transcription challenging and wherever possible the Bodoney Lower Tithe Applotment Book (1830) and Griffiths Valuation (c1858) have been consulted in an attempt to confirm families and townland addresses. Original spelling has been retained.
The parish is variously spelt as Badoney, Bodoney, Bodony, etc.
