    1. Re: [IRELAND] "Negil" Ireland - ?Donegall, Co. Fermanagh

    3. Lindsey -- You said that you thought that your people came from Co. Fermanagh? Mike suggested "negil" could be from a townland that sounded something like "Do-negal". I then was thinking Co. Donegal, but have discovered that there is a DONEGALL townland in Co. Fermanagh. Maybe that is what Mike was referring to??? It is apparently over by Enniskillen. (Townland, acres, County, Barony, CP, PLU), as seen on the IreAtlas townland search. That seems pretty promising! I didn't find anything promising on a townland search beginning with the letter "N" in Co. Fermanagh Donegall 41 Fermanagh Magheraboy Devenish Enniskillen There are Stonepark and Stonefort townlands also in Co. Fermanagh but whether or not they are in the vicinity of Donegall townland, you'd have to try and find out. Just looking at some "hits" via Google, it seems to me that Stonepark would be the closest to Donegall, but try and find out. The parish of Lisnaskea remained a district curacy in Aghalurcher parish until 1863 when it was created a perpetual curacy.
