Explanation
All descriptions are abbreviated from Milne's work.
I have simply listed the main words on the legend 
which should identify the piece.

PRES.. 	= I have removed words and/or letters
PRES' 	=  "
B'Y..	= Bally.. eg B'YCARRY is Ballycarry
C'..	= Castle.. eg C'DERG is Castlederg
N'..	= Newtown.. eg N'STEWART is Newtownstewart
ob	= oblong
ov	= oval 
ser	= serrated (border)
mon	= monogram
sq	= square 
r	= round 
-r	= rounded or cut corners
'..'	= indicates character(s) in retrograde 
"|" 	= line separation, 
"/" 	= obverse/reverse
*123 &c	= illustration in Milne

All other abbreviations should be obvious.

Churches which used stock tokens or are known not to
have used tokens, have been removed to save space. 

A blank indicates it is uncertain whether they used tokens or not.

All dimensions have been converted from 1/16" to mm.
