 Thanks for you replies, i had looked everywhere for Barnfield, i find grave of Michael, Margaret and son Michael no dates in Gloghans Old Cem  address Barnfield.

Looks like family moved around, marriage has Michael address Friarstown as is Margaret Forrestal,  one child born in same place, Gortaskibbole and Derrynamuck for others.

I am researching the child Katie (Catherine) can find no birth any help ?

In 1911 census  of Lisduvogue there is a Martin Ward aged 28 wife Bridget and family,  married 4 yrs, child Patrick shows mother as Bridget Kelly,  i cant locate a marriage for the couple would like to confirm Martin is the son of Michael Ward, any help in finding marriage record ?

Also find grave of Martin 1956, Bridget 1961and Patrick 1995 address Barnfield

Thank you

I don't think they moved around all three of those families are farmers, I think the border between Gortaskibbole and Derrynamuck was a bit fluid, no one was entirely sure which townland they were in.
Farmers don't tend to move.
Barnfield appears to be a local name for the area, it's not showing up on OSI maps but it does get a result in their search in as Hallmark said Gortaskibbole
