Help with old address from Baptisim register plse
« on: Friday 11 November 11 00:31 GMT (UK) »
I've received some baptisim records from the TFHR centre and all the children are from Templemore/Clonmore Parish, and their parents address is also Clonmore - however the eldest child's details read slightly different. I couldn't find much on the address..any ideas?? Anyone heard of it?

Name: John COMERFORD
Date: 23/11/1829
Parish: Templemore/Clonmore
Address: COOLOUGE
Father: William COMERFORD
Mother: Mary TALBOT
Sponsor: Timothy COMERFORD
Sponsor: Elizabeth BOES
Register: T/MORE/161

Also the Female sponsor's surname is unusual? BOES?
Gallen - Dongegal
Comerford - Tipperary

I'm thinking it maybe COOLOGE? It doesn't appear to be far from Templemore on the map anyway! ;)

If I'm looking at the same Coologe (226 acres, north west of Templemore about 11km as the crowflies).. then it's in the civil parish of Aghnameadle, and seems to be in the RC parish of Toomevara.

There's is another Coologe - civil parish Templeneiry..
