    Griffiths Valuation has a James McCauley in a house in Spout Lane, Fivemiletown, in 1860. He gave the property up in 1885. I looked for a possible death around that time but didn’t find one.

    You would need the street name or the electoral district to find it. Bear in mind also that the occupants may only be recorded under their initials, and not their names.
