When Thomas Bradshaw published his Directory in 1820 he wrote that it contained an alphabetical list of the merchants, manufacturers and inhabitants of the towns of Newry, Armagh, Dungannon, Portadown, Tandragee, Lurgan, Waringstown, Banbridge,Warrenpoint, Rostrevor, Kilkeel and Rathfriland. Listed below are all the entries for Armagh city. Although it is, a useful early source of information it is far from a comprehensive one. This is borne out when we read in Stuart's memoirs that a census of the city in 1817 estimated the population at 7010 which isn't reflected in the list of only 620 names here

My idiosyncratic notes relate to what I am learning about connections of any of these people to members of our family.

John KERR shows up as a witness in an  OLIVER deed along with a William OLIVER, chandler (SEE: DEED: 543-185-357805 dated July 1, 1801). There is also an Edward KERR of Armagh who had a will abstract dated 1807. An Edward KERR was a brewer in the City of Armagh as well as the Executor of the estate of Thomas OSBURN late of Ballymorran. Because first names can also be clues, I also note that there is a Benjamin KERR who had a will probated in Armagh 1783 and another in 1847. The latter was a linen draper. There was also an Oliver KERR from Enagh who had a will probated in 1779. KERRS also inhabited townlands where OLIVERs and/or OSBURNS also lived, notably Killylea and Ballymorran.
