Felond Limerick?
« on: Saturday 24 September 05 04:48 BST (UK) »
The 1871 census of Willesden says she was born in 'Felond Limerick' and I cant find this place ............ is there a town,village or Hamlet that might be similar to 'Felond' in Limerick?

Joboy,
I haven't heard of this name before, I cannot find it on my local maps for limerick either, and I cant think what it might be.
What is the census reference and I'll have a look see if I can make it out.

Hello Sharon and thanks for your interest,
The reference is  RG10/1328 Reg Hendon Sub Reg Willesden and it is the family 'FLOWER'.
I have just taken a magnified look at it again and at a pinch it could be;
'Limerick Ireland' although I have taken the same interpretation as the Ancestry transcriber.
I would appreciate your thoughts though.
