Help with place name?

[forthefamily]

Has anyone heard of a place called Clamperland in the Inishowen area?

What townland would I be looking for in the census records?

Thanks

Clamperland is on Google maps - north east of Buncrana.

This is a list of the Donegal townlands http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_townlands_of_County_Donegal  and parishes http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~bhilchey/DonegalMain.html

Hi,
   Clamperland seems to be a small area in the townland of Druminderry according to Griffiths maps and lies to the NE of Buncranna as Kay 99 said.

Thanks,

Sorry, I have double checked and Clamperland is a piece of land in the neighbouring townland of Cleenagh. According to Griffiths it was rented by a William McLoughlin and possibly Michael McLoughlin in 1857.

Okay...I had found a birth for the couple I'm looking for and it is in Cleenagh 

I finally found them in 1911 in Buncrana, Buncrana which covered some townlands that I didn't think it would. Good to know though. Why they were in Buncrana is very strange but whatever

It took a while to find so I'll post it anyway may help someone else some day
1901 http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Donegal/Illies/Clunagh/
To be fair to the transcriber it does look like Clunagh on Form N but Clunagh doesn't seem to exist the Enumerator's e's are missing their loops so look like a u.
