    Just found this information last night. Cancelled valuation office books for Northern Ireland are on PRONI. Includes at least part of monaghan.
    Did not check adjoining counties.

    A lot of my South Armagh (Newtownhamilton, Dorsey, Cullyhana) ancestors BMDs were registered in Castleblayney, Co Monaghan. They also used Blayney Workhouse. Most (all?) of County Louth is part of the Catholic Diocese of Armagh. We forget that there wasn't always a border, that cursed artificial construct.

    If you look at a map of registration districts, https://www.irish-genealogy-toolkit.com/image-files/registrardistrictsmapnorth2.jpg , you see that they rarely followed county boundaries.
