Brenda, This townland's spellings over the years has already been addressed by Peter Beirne of the County Clare Library, see below. To find this gem I inputted your spelling of it into the Clare County Library search engine and had the explanation within 30 seconds. I think the place of first resort on all such things is the library website, because Googling is an effective key to sort through the huge amount of historical information there. Sharon Carberry Georgia "...To the best of my knowledge, Agherine refers to the townland of Aharinagh More in the parish of O'Briensbridge. Note that Aharinagh names two townlands, Aharinagh Beg (small or lower Aharinagh) in the parish of Killokennedy, and Aharinagh More (big or upper Aharinagh) in the parish of O'Briensbridge. Note also that the spelling of this townland varies somewhat over the decades and centuries. In the Tithe Applotment Books of the mid and late 1820s it is spelled Aherina (for the O'Briensbridge townland) and in the Griffith's Valuation of the mid 1850s it is spelled Aharinaghmore...Note also that Aharinagh Beg and Aharinagh More, though in two different parishes, are in fact adjoining townlands..."

Hi, From Swords Voices Vol.1 part 10. (2003). (Swords, Co. Dublin) 'From Clare to Here - Mrs. Anne Flynn' "Mrs. Anne Flynn (nee Connole) was born in Ballyphaidin, Co. Clare in 1914 and came to the Swords area in 1933 ......... ........ I was working in a place in Kilfenora and I loved it. Sonny and Kathleen O'Keefe was the name of the people and they loved music .... .... my brother M.J. ..... .... I went back down when I had a sister there but nobody there now would know me ...... " Declan

Hi, 'A Hard Station - Musings on St.Colmcille's Church, Swords' (Swords, Co. Dublin) ".... death of Dr. Davys, coroner (Francis Davys) .......... son of the late James Davys R.M. for the counties of Cork, Galway and Clare .... " Declan

Brenda, At the Clare Library website go to http://www.clarelibrary.ie/eolas/guests2004.htm and look at Peter Beirne's entry in the visitors' book which reads ".....the placename 'Agherine.' To the best of my knowledge, Agherine refers to the townland of Aharinagh More in the parish of O'Briensbridge. Note that Aharinagh names two townlands, Aharinagh Beg (small or lower Aharinagh) in the parish of Killokennedy, and Aharinagh More (big or upper Aharinagh) in the parish of O'Briensbridge. Note also that the spelling of this townland varies somewhat over the decades and centuries. In the Tithe Applotment Books of the mid and late 1820s it is spelled Aherina (for the O'Briensbridge townland) and in the Griffith's Valuation of the mid 1850s it is spelled Aharinaghmore......" Then go to the 1842 OS maps at the Clare Library site and look at these townlands on the map and see whether they might correspond to the one you are looking for in the parish of Killaloe (which is right next door).
