Co. Westmeath is actually a separate County to Meath - see : http://mcdonaghheritage.com/images/map_of_Irish_Counties.jpg

there's a Ballynacarrigy in Co. Westmeath... - see the townland database at : www.thecore.com/seanruad

  Ballynacarrigy Town, Moygoish,    Kilbixy,   Westmeath        
  (town/Barony/Civil Parish/County)

there's also a Baronstown in the same civil parsh

The spelling of the name looks a bit strange, I know the surname Heavin is very strong in the Moate area of Westmeath, but have not come across your spelling.

Hello,

http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#c=1408347;p=collectionDetails;t=searchable

shows a James Hedivan birth in 1907 - Mullingar registration district.

There are also some Heduvans for Westmeath (but not James)

You could send for the certificate to http://www.groireland.ie/

or wait until 1911 census for Westmeath is released.

best wishes
heywood
