Baptism of Esther Smyth

[Canadian Goose]

Hello,
Think I may have taken a brick out of my wall, but could use some help.  Reviewing microfilms found a baptism for Esther Smyth, who I believe may be in my tree.  Actually looking for older (possible sister) Mary Ann.  Found an entry for the baptism of Esther in 14 Apr 1852, Baptism place - Blessington, Wicklow and Kildare, Ireland.  The residence place was Blessington and parish variants was Blessington Church of Kilbride, Eadestown, Kilbride Church, Blessington, Diocese Dublin.

Google has not been helpful.  Is this in Wicklow or Kildare?  Eadestown is Kildare and Blessington is Wicklow?  Where do I continue searching?

Thanks in advance for suggestions.

Maiden Stone they were Catholic. Long story short, family first found in Lancashire census. Traced all children through census until I hit on Blessingtown instead of just Ireland. Ancestry kindly added County Mayo and had me on a wild goose chase.

Hallmark that is where I was reviewing anyplace with Blessing in it and stumbled on Blessington. Back to Ancestry where I found the baptism for Esther. The baptism date, parents all match with census entries. Esther and siblings appear on the baptisms of the children of the woman I am trying to find. Unfortunately she was born prior to 1852 but hoping I am in the ballpark now.

Blessington is the name of a townland, town and civil parish in Lower Talbotstown Barony, Naas Poor Law Union, County Wicklow. There are also 3 townlands called Blessington in County Kilkenny.
Blessingtown is a townland in Kilmaine Barony, Ballinrobe Poor Law Union, County Mayo.
Did they name a county on a census or just Blessington or Blessingtown?

Maiden Stone, the original 1911 census entry in Cheshire was written Ireland, Blessingtown.  Ancestry transcription shows Blessingtontown, Ireland.  Family Search transcribed it as Ireland, Blessington, County Mayo.  Griffith's Valuations and parish register checks available have nothing other than this entry.
