Drumloo County Down
« on: Monday 02 September 19 09:50 BST (UK) »
Hi, can anyone help me pinpoint Drumloo in County Down? It is mentioned on a shipping record in the early 1800s. The only Drumloo I can find is not in County Down (now). Has the County changed or is there one I do not know of in Down?

Might it be the townland of Drumlee - spoken in a broad Ulster accent  ;D

Put Drum in the Townland box, choose At Beginning of field in Search Method and Down in County and you will get all the townlands beginning with Drum in Co Down.
