The largest Ballyglass (physically, 2000 acres) is in Baslick civil parish, 2 to 3 miles S of Bellanagare and about 5 miles WNW of Tulsk. The other Ballyglass townlands are average-sized (200 to 400 acres, or so). There is one in Cloontuskert CP, 2 miles NNW of Lanesborough, Co. Longford, and close to the Shannon. There are adjacent Ballyglass townlands in Dysart (one is called "Ballyglass (Dodwell)"), about 3 miles SE of Ballyforan, close to the Galway border and along the west side of the R 357 heading south to Ballinasloe, Co. Galway. There is a divided Ballyglass, mostly in Rahara CP but a quarter of it or so is in Killinvoy CP. It's located 5 1/2 miles ESE of Athleague and 2 1/2 miles SW of Knockcroghery. Killukin civil parish has a Ballyglass, 4 miles SE of Tulsk, to the east of the N 61. There are widely-separated East and West Ballyglasses in Tibohine CP. The West one is 2 miles W of Loughglinn town, in the NE corner of the R 293 and R 326 junction. The East Ballyglass is 1 mile due east of Loughglinn. Cloonygormican civil parish has adjacent Upper and Lower Ballyglass townlands, about 5 miles NW of Roscommon town. I think that's about it.
