You will find all of Ireland's parish names on the "Ireland Reaching Out" website. There are eighty in Antrim but I can't decipher the name. I have been researching my great-grandmother's birthplace in Co. Sligo but she may have been born elsewhere. Ken Gittins

Not a site I would use as I've noticed errors on it in the past.

This one is very good for finding townlands, parishes, Poor Law Unions/Registration District, etc.-

However, in this case Google was more useful-
TEMPLECORRAN, or BROAD ISLAND, a parish, in the barony of LOWER BELFAST, county of ANTRIM...
