Is there anyone who can put this straight? >> Looking at Longford maps of both the civil parishes, I can say this much. Clonbroney civil and RC parish boundaries are identical. Drumlish RC parish is a part of the much larger Killoe civil parish. The remainder of Killoe civil parish is represented as Killoe RC parish. And now, the part that I don't understand. From looking at the map, it appears that when the church drew the parish lines, separating Drumlish RC and Killoe RC parishes - - - they drew the line so that the town of Drumlish was left behind, in Killoe RC parish.
