    3. Clive, WOW! This is a wonderful resource! I know I should read the directions, but I am too excited. Is there a way to get a "topo" map or else an aerial photo of a particular area? Can these be printed out?

    3. All, I agree with you, Janet! I am printing all the townland maps for my family, so that when I am in Fermanagh in early May I can see what each townland looks like. Many old family houses are used as barns and sheds. I hope to be able to find them. The 1901 census tells names and types of houses in a townland and is very useful as well. In 1901, for example, a 70 year old who is listed, would have been around when my relatives left in 1840 or 1848. So, we must not discount use of the 1901 free census (google Irish census) Anne -----Original Message----- From: caiside via Sent: Monday, March 21, 2016 9:11 AM To: [email protected] ; [email protected] >> Killyfole and District Development Association Subject: FERMANAGH-GOLD Townland maps Clive, WOW!

    3. Google maps give a good aerial view. Change map view to aerial view. You can see the fence lines in the fields and the outline of the townlands.
