I have a from County Down Gravestone Inscriptions pub. by the Ulster Historical Foundation in Belfast. Volume 16 at the Donaghadee Cemetery this information:- "Boyd and Hamilton stones with McMinn stones John Boyd, Killachies, died 14-9-1761 aged 68 years" However I have sheet 15 from the Ordnance Maps but can't see any townland marked "KILLACHIES". Can some one please give me some direction to find where this townland might be on the map please. Thank you Mike Boyd Brisbane, Aust

I would make a guess as 'Killaghy' in Donaghadee Parish Here is a link to a map of the townlands, courtesy of Roz Davies http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~rosdavies/MAPS/DonaghadeeTownlands.htm Rosemary > From: mikejboyd@bigpond.com > To: nir-down@rootsweb.com > Date: Sat, 18 Jun 2011 10:43:15 +1000 > Subject: [NIR-DOWN] Killachies Townland > > I have a from County Down Gravestone Inscriptions pub. by the Ulster > Historical Foundation in Belfast.
