Would anyone have a guess as to where Kilnaulough, Co. Galway would be as mentioned in this obit? Hannah / Hanora Finn's maiden name was JOYNT and she was my gg grandfather's sister. This is the first I have seen this place mentioned. The Palo Alto Pilot; Emmetsburg, Palo Alto, IA; Thursday, March 11, 1875 DIED. At the residence of David Finn, on Thursday March 4th, 1875, at 8 o'clock P.M., Hannah wife of David Finn, of Emmetsburg, Palo Alto County, Iowa. The deceased was 32 years old, and was born in Killnaulough, County Galway, Ireland. She leaves four children, the eldest being but four years old. The deceased was a good wife and mother, and a consistent member of the Catholic Church, and was buried according to the ritual thereof. Many warm friends who esteemed her highly mourn her death. Thanks, Cathy JOYNT Labath

I would suggest this possible placename: Ballinlough. In fact, there are two in Co. Galway.
