Saintfield Death location
« on: Sunday 31 August 14 18:10 BST (UK) »
Hi there,

My ancestor Eliza Ferris died in Saintfield District in County Down on 21st February 1889.

However, I can't make out the specific location from the death certificate.

It looks like: 'Craignessarmagh', but I can't find any mentions of such a place.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Peter

Thank you - if you don't mind me asking, how did you deduce that?

Best wishes

Hi,
   This site is a great help in locating townlands. http://www.thecore.com/seanruad/
Change "must match exactly" to one of the other options.
