different surveys of, the
village of DungannOn. ,
Each of the four corners
of the .village was once
owned by a different
settler--Mallough and
Davidson on the Ashfield
•side- and blelViath : and
Berry on the West
a Wwanosh side. The
village was apparently
named in 185'4 when it
was laid out. It is said
that this was done ..•by
putting several names in'
a hat. The first one drawn
was Dungannon, the •
name of the'. city in,
Ireland from which
Mallough had emigrated.
Most of • the original
settlers in Dungannon
d 'were from Ireland an
many of their relatives
still remain in the area.
