You can find Vermont here: http://www.maplandia.com/ireland/mid-west/limerick/vermont/ Insofar as Valiorland is concerned, it would be my guess the spelling represents an Irish accent notwithstanding the fact it appears like this on the tombstone. It is probablly Bally..... something or other. Here are a couple of examples although there can be more: Ballyorgan 356 Limerick Coshlea Kilflyn Kilmallock Munster Ballyrobin 244 Limerick Connello Lower Kilscannell Rathkeale Munster These are taken from the IreAtlas Data Base here: http://www.seanruad.com/ Mike On Tue, Mar 3, 2009 at 12:31 PM, Kathie Sullivan <kathie@sullivaninfo.com>wrote: > > I'm new to this list and I apologize if this is way outside of the accepted > topics.
