Title: Birth place help please. William Crawford, Killashandra.
Post by: martin young on Wednesday 28 April 21 10:38 BST (UK)

Hi could anyone help me to read the birthplace for William Crawford, middle entry on the attached document please?

I think it is Yure Glebe, which these days is spelt Yewer.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Might it be Eure Glebe (which the registrar thinks is the spelling of Yewer Glebe based on the Cavan accent). It's in Killashandra civil parish.
