Hi Nancy, I'm on the digest mode so you may have already received an answer about your Ballymoe question. If not, I'll try to explain. Ballymoe is a town and a Barony. Its civil parish is Drumatemple. It is in County Galway on the border with County Roscommon and I was told that years ago before a border change, Ballymoe was in Co. Roscommon. Today the mailing address is so and so at Ballymoe, Castlereagh, County Roscommon even though Ballymoe is in Co. Galway. The Roman Catholic Church in Ballymoe is St. Croan's. Fr. Flanagan, the founder of Boy's Town, grew up in Ballymoe and there is a statue of him on the church grounds. Ballymoe has a small "downtown" with about a dozen shops/pubs. If you "google" Ballymoe, you'll find out more about its background. The civil and church records are held at the Heritage Center in Roscommon. Hope this helps. Joanne
