House location - Parish of Currin, Co. Monaghan
« on: Sunday 10 September 17 15:23 BST (UK) »
Is their anywhere on-line that lets people pinpoint where houses are located in Monaghan?
I have a marriage certificate from 1873 and the residence is stated as
Dumlena or maybe Drumrena, Parish of Currin, Co. Monaghan. The Ulster Historical Society has a map showing Currin but is there anyway of locating the property?
Thanks
Robert

If the family were living in the same place at the time of Griffith's Valuation it might be possible to find the house.

This is land survey so only the lease holder is listed, which could for example be a grandmother of one of parties to the marriage you have.

Suspect the townland could be Drumreenagh. Here’s the occupants in the 1901 census:
