in ireland parishes are mostly made up of TOWNLANDS these are rural areas, bog, grazing, farming and open fields. they all had names and you would not know one from the other only that you would stop a a local farmhouse and ask the names of the townlands in the area. there are over 80,000 of them in ireland and thats why you wont find them on most maps. most are not near any town or city but are out in the boondocks MOYNEARD A TOWNLAND of 711 acres in the PARISH OF MOYNE AND IN THE POOR LAW UNION OF THURLES IN COUNTY TIPPERARY. THE ABOVE INFORMATION COMES FROM THE 1851 INDEX TO TOWNS, TOWNLANDS AND PARISHES OF IRELAND. for a map of this area call 515 232 1070 and tell them you want the discovery map that would cover the area around thurles in county tipp. you may need to buy two maps

Hi Paul, Good to hear from you. Yes there are quite a few Gernona and Dowdall marriages over several hundred year period. The Dowdalls married several different Gernons and Plunketts. I spent 5 weeks in Ireland and just returned. Had one full week in County Louth researching the Dowdall family and visiting the ruins of Athcarne Castle, Athlumney Castle, Monkstown and Causeway castles and so many other incredible places.

Mary a chara, I have a lot of information about the Gernon family because they married into the Dowdall family. My Mom was a Dowdall and I am researching the Dowdall family. I have a copy of the Dowdall Deeds which goes back to the early 1200s and there are many many entries regarding the Gernons. The castle at Duleek was built by the Bath family. I have a picture taken of it this past August. A Dowdall married a Bath and the Bath and Dowdall coat of arms are carved in stone and on the side of the castle. Just checked Lewis Topigraphical Dictionary of Ireland and find that in the 1830s it is listed as owned by Gernon. Don't know when it changed hands, although there are so many marriages between the Gernon family and the Dowdall family that it may have descended to the Gernons through marriage. Will have to do some checking on this. Jenet Dowdall Bath Plunkett had several celtic road crosses erected in the area. One is in memory of her husband William Bath and another her husband Oliver Plunkett. Have you tried posting on the County Louth and Meath bulletin boards?

Mary, Although no relation to me, there are/were Gernon's in Champaign County, Illinois that were physicians. Dr. John Gernon, in particular, practiced there for many years. You might want to visit the Champaign County rootsweb site for more information, and check out the Champaign County Genealogical Society. I know the Urbanan Free Library (also on line and very, very helpful) would have a full biography on him.
