Maybe Pete can toake a look at the maps and see how these townlands might connect up. >> Janet, The Drumbaun was the only placename that seemed out-of-the-way (NE of Toomyvara), so I picked a Drumbane (which is usually a good substitute) in Moyaliff civil parish. All of your mentioned townlands are in the south riding (I still hate that term - you can't have a "riding" if there are only two) except for Knocknakill, which is the farthest north and Drumbane village/townland. The farthest south townland/village is Donohill, which is less than 5 miles N of Tipp. town. From there, to the farthest north Knocknakill is about 11 miles. The east to west spread of these places is about 9 miles. Not exactly a tight, cozy area..... but one which would be a reasonable area for a family over a number of generations, I'd guess (written by one who knows absolutely nothing about these things <gr>). - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Pete Schermerhorn, in the glorious Berkshire hills of western Massachusetts
