Does anyone know if the name Munster is sometimes used for a specific county? I have a passenger list, giving county after county and then pops up someone claiming to come from Munster.

Thanx, Dave. My question was not as clear as it could be, sorry. I was asking if anyone has heard of a specific county or maybe even a townland as being refered to as Munster. If not than the passengers who refered to Munster on ships passenger lists gave their provense name rather than county. That's probably the most likely case, but hoping against hope, I thought I's ask.
