Place in Mayo

[rogerb]

Could somebody have a quick look at the place name here.  I'm presuming that the County is Mayo, although it doesn't really look like it to me!  And I can't seem to decipher the comment about "Bailliebank"  Can anyone help with this please.

I think it says 'not a twld in County Mayo' - meaning  townland.

Does 'Ip fo' mean 'Ipso Facto' but I would wonder why?

Have you solved this now, Roger, through your other thread?

Possibly - it looks like the name given wasn't a known place name.  Can't quite make out the next bit - "surrounding"??  But at least I get the gist of the form.

Thanks for your help

There is a place called Bellaburke (was Ballyburke) near Westport.  And I have found 4 baptisms for children of Martin Dolan and Mary Higgins from there.  But not one for John!

Hopefully I'm getting closer!

Sounds good!
What dates are you looking for?

[heywood]

Which parish is it that you are searching?
I can see Ballyburke, Galway and Bellaburke, Ballintober, Mayo but not Westport.

This one is 60 y.o.  so maybe look for this one too?  See if you can find him on church records, possible sibling??  http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Mayo/Cloonkeen/Bellaburke/1584774/
