There are several of them in Ireland, however ......... four of them in Co. Meath alone. There's the one he mentioned, in Knockmark civil parish a couple of miles NW of Drumree village. There's a very picturesque Holy Well in this townland. And there's another Warrenstown just 4 to 5 miles due south of this first Warrenstown, in Culmullin civil parish. The third Meath Warrenstown is one to two miles NW of Dunboyne town, in Dunboyne civil parish. The last Meath Warrenstown is just a couple of miles to the north of number three, 2 miles east of Batterstown in Rathbeggan civil parish. There are two other Warrenstown listings in Ireland - both in Co. Kilkenny - but they are actually a single townland, with a civil parish line cutting through it. This Warrenstown is mostly in Fertagh CP but with a small piece in Erke civil parish. This townland includes the southern part of Johnstown small town in northwestern Co. Kilkenny. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Pete Schermerhorn, in the glorious Berkshire hills of western Massachusetts
