The collecting localities of Henry William Lett

[Roger Horton]

Henry William Lett (1836-1920) lived from 1886 at Loughbrickland in the parish of Aghaderg, County Down, occupying Aghaderg Glebe. He collected locally but the Irish names for sites are sometimes difficult to interpret.

Ros Davies' Co. Down, Northern Ireland Family History Research Site has maps, one of parishes including Aghaderg, for which there is another map of townlands, which are useful for identifying the collection locations.

Lett was rector of St Mellon's which is recorded as having a glebe house on 26 acres (although this is recorded elsewhere as 24 acres).

Aghaderg Glebe was recently sold and there is a brochure HERE.
