There's a townland named Longford of about 150 acres in Co. Mayo in the Civil parish of Crossmolina. see the townland database at : www,thecore.com/seanruad

Is it parish records are you looking for ?   if so what religion ?

The Griffith's record for the townland is dated 1854 - see : Longford townland, Crosmolina civil parish

The Irish Times have details on the records available for the parish - see : RC Parish of Crossmolina

Baptisms and Marriages are available for the parish from the early 1830s, with some gaps, on Microfilm Pos. 4230 in the National Library. The pay-website of the Irish Family History Foundation appears to include transcripts for the parish - see www.irish-roots.ie
