Placename near Ballinrobe help please
« on: Wednesday 07 January 15 12:22 GMT (UK) »
Hi, I was wondering if anyone recognizes the place name where Margaret Gibbons was charged with this offence? Must be near Ballinrobe where she was tried and convicted.

Link with place names around Ballinrobe, but dont see any that resemble your query.
I am wondering is it the surname "Concannon"

That sounds very plausible glensman.

There were Concannons and Gibbons in and around Ballinrobe around 1850s.

Thanks for all the suggestions. It well may be the surname of the property owner (owner of the sheep).We have also been in contact with a chap from the family history centre in Ballainrobe and await his reply.
