Fanet -where is it?
« on: Tuesday 15 February 11 23:24 GMT (UK) »
Hi

Please can someone tell me where Fanet  is? My  great great uncle was born there and it is most likely to be in Donegal?
I have his date of birth and parents names but I cannot find Fanet on the map, or in Irish Place Names.

Thanks

There's a Fanad in Donegal- could that be the place?
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

It is the old name for Fanad in Donegal

There is still a Parish of Fannet (RC and Presbyterian)
This post is a natural hand made product. The slight variations in spelling and grammar enhance its individual character and beauty and in no way are to be considered flaws. Unfortunately my preferred method of writing (Parker Quink on Basildon Bond) cannot be used.
