<p>Some statistics on the Church of Ireland Diocese of Raphoe in 1801. This covers most of Donegal. <a href="http://www.dennisonzone.com/phpgedview/individual.php?pid=I51&ged=Dennisons%20071127a.ged" target="_blank">Dr. Theaker Wilder</a> was Rector of Tullyaughnish (Ramelton) from 1769 to 1777. It is not likely that the statistics would have changed much between then and 1801.</p>
