I wonder if he meant the Civil Parish of Kilcumny and it was mis-heard or mis-transcribed.

You are right!

When I look at the documents again - it IS Kilcumny -- that is MY mistake. I am so sorry. I have scribbled it with some notes on a pad and written it incorrectly. Definitely Kilcumny.

I must do better!

On the address... Mullingar is likely added to the address because there is also a Collinstown in Dublin, Dublin Airport is also in a townland called Collinstown.
St Johns Church in Drumcree (now in private ownership as a house) was Church of Ireland. The nearest Catholic church / graveyard is Collinstown or Delvin both are 3 miles from Drumcree. St Feichins Catholic church and graveyard in Fore is also nearby.

Searching in Ireland the townlands are worth cross checking with the parish records which may be named by Catholic diocese - Drumcree is currently Diocese of Meath.

Another thought... do you know if these Daly's listed on the census for Kilcumney might be the ones you are interested in?

http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Westmeath/Kilcumny/Kilcumny/1778433/
If you check out https://finder.eircode.ie and enter KILCUMNY, COLLINSTOWN, MULLINGAR, CO. WESTMEATH you will see a current map of the area. There is also a graveyard in Kilpatrick as far as I know which is also nearby. https://www.landdirect.ie/ is another site that maps all land in the country. Best wises, Mary
