Which Townland on Griffith's entry?
« on: Tuesday 03 March 09 10:30 UTC (UK) »
Hi everyone.

Have checked Griffith's Valuation on askaboutireland site for a Cornelius Sullivan in Killarney.

There are 18 entries under Magunihy Barony.

Without knowing the Townland I can't narrow it down.

Any ideas about how I could find a Townland?

Griffith's Valuation itself won't tell you which, if any, entry is the correct one. You need to find the name of the townland from other sources like civil registrations (births, deaths, marriages), church records, etc.

Yes, the only possibility I could think of myself was the church record of the baptism of his daughter. 
The LDS gives no place info - other than Killarney.

I just thought someone might come up with an alternative way.

Thanks anyway.
