Galmoy and Johnstown are just a few miles apart, and people from Laois do feature in the roman Catholic parish records of Johnstown, Co. Kilkenny. Listed below are townlands which are found in the marriage records of Johnstown 1856-1857 Townlands listed (including all variations of spelling & questionables as I read them!): 7 Sisters - B.Spellan - Ballycuddihy - Ballyellis - Ballyphillip - Bawn - Bawn Aughra - Bawnaghra - Bawnmore -Bayswell - Beggar - Beggars - Beggars...?town - Beggars?town - Boglane - Bricana - Bycuddy - ByDonnell - ByPhillip - Castletown - Coo?lpatrick - Coolaclanin?tta - Coolaclaunish - Coolaultha - Coolnacrutta - Donaghmore - Galmoy - Garrybawn - Garrylawn - Glashare - Glishare - Graigue ?more - Graigue Lower - Graigue town - Graigue Upper - Graiguegannon - Graiguegarron - Grange Johnstown - Kyle - Lavally - Lough - Ralogue - Rapoleen - Rath...
