Maribeth, Tomard is in the neighbourhood of Leighlinbridge towards the north on the western side of the river Barrow. There is tombstone in the Leighlinbridge cemetery for a John Nolan of Tomard. (see the third tombstone on this age http://www.nolanfamilies.org/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=26&page=1 ). Also you can view a map of the area by going to the following page and zooming in. http://www.traveljournals.net/explore/ireland/map/p452797/tomard.html . In particular, I notice that it is also close to Ballinabranna which had its own cemetery. (see http://www.nolanfamilies.org/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=79 ). I also have a picture of an old church ruin for Tomard but I don't know where the records for this church would be. I will send you the picture off-list.

Thank you Roger...it's my Sheil relatives that I'm tracking in Tomard, but it's interesting to see there are Nolans there as well...they seem to be everywhere! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Roger Nowlan" <rnowlan@primus.ca> To: <irl-carlow@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, January 31, 2010 12:32 PM Subject: Re: [IRL-CARLOW] TOMARD COUNTY CARLOW > Maribeth, > Tomard is in the neighbourhood of Leighlinbridge towards the north on the > western side of the river Barrow.
