    1. Re: [DONEGALEIRE] Slieveban and Carnmalin
    2. Hi Nancy, You must be doing the Farrens, same as me. They seem to be lurking in Slieveban and Carnmalin as well as the more usual Caramore and lots of others. Either that or the ubiquitous Dohertys! And I also too got stuck on these two places. Because they are NOT townlands. I have now found out that Slieveban is actually just a place in the townland of Ardmalin. And Ardmalin is in the Civil Parish of Clonca (Catholic Parish of Malin). You will see it here: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~bhilchey/DonegalMain.html In order to find Slieveban, I had to look for it on the online maps and then overlap them to see what townland it is in now. Last might I stumbled across Carnmalin in the Civil Registry of Births when looking for Farrens and I can not find it either sooooo...... Back to those pesky maps! (But I bet it is very close by in the Parish of Clonca or maybe Culdaff.)

I have checked the 1851 Townland Index, townlands in poor law unions, and assorted web sites but can't locate them. The district is Malin. Nancy SNIP
