Hello Kamilla,

thecore.com/seanruad shows only the one place name beginning with Ballam ... that's Ballaman

What is the surname of the people you're researching who lived in these places?

It would be interesting to know if Ballamaler and Ballamorconniel are in the same county. This might help to take the guesswork out of the equation and help find the correct placename.

Ballymaleel or Ballymalis ... Donegal

Ballyconnell ... Donegal, Galway, Kerry, Sligo, Wicklow
