Donegal is Letterleague; Parish Conwel; Barony Raphoe; Poor Law union Letterkenny. I wonder if the original transcription was done by someone who misread the name of the townland. Sometimes it's very tricky to be sure with old, worn stones, or even with handwritten manuscripts or forms. I've been working with old parish records on film, and some of them are very difficult to read, and I've looked at photos of old gravestones which were almost impossible to decipher, even with good lighting on them.
