Title: Question RE: Civil Registration Districts
Post by: Cfdm on Saturday 10 September 16 23:13 BST (UK)

Hello,
I'm trying to find a map that shows the boundries, of civil registration districts.
But, I want it to include townland names, also.

Does anyone know where I can find one?

After at least two years of research, I still can't wrap my head around places in Ireland.

Thanks,
CFDM

Not sure you are going to find a complete map of townlands?

According to this wikipedia page, there are 61,098 townlands in Ireland!
