    3. Hi Ron, When I first read your email, I thought you meant that the townland borders changed over time, or the administrative divisions (District Electoral Divisions or Registrar's Districts, for instance) did, and you were looking for a map showing which parts of the townland fell into which administrative division, etc., at various time periods. But I see Ray has read your email as asking for the townland details, showing all the individual farms. If you are looking for the detail map that shows the individual farms / fields, you want 1) Griffith's Valuation maps and 2) any updates to those maps associated with the subsequent Annual Revisions (called the Canceled Land Books outside Ulster and in most "how to" books). The originals for both 1 and 2 are at PRONI, photocopies (at least of category 1) are at the Ulster Folk Park in Tyrone -- and to my knowledge, both are accessible only in person. AskAboutIreland.ie seems to have pretty detailed maps for Termonmaguirk (showing farm / field boundaries and numbers) -- so you could find a particular farm tied to the map reference in Griffith's Valuation, if that's what you're looking for. As far as I know, the category 2 maps are only available at PRONI -- but maybe some have been digitized for the AskAboutIreland site?? You'd have to search to find out. Here's the Irish Times / John Grenham site page that takes you to the GV map on AskAboutIreland for Bracky in Termonmaguirk, in case you have trouble getting there from the AAI site directly. <http://www.irishtimes.com/ancestor/fuses/townlands/index.cfm? fuseaction=TownlandsInCivil&civilparishid=2365&civilparish=Termonmaguirk &citycounty=Tyrone> If you're looking for something else, can you please clarify? Maybe we'll have a better answer for you if we better understand what you're looking for. Regards, Claire K.
