I have Grogan ancestors from County Cork and I've found that there is a place called Ballygrogan in County Cork. Can anyone tell me more than what's on Google & whether it's North or South Cork on Roots Ireland?

Griffiths Valuation shows that there were 20 households recorded there in 1851. You can see a map of the townland in 1851 on the Griffiths site, and then overlay a modern map to compare. (Use the place name search option to get all the households).
