Thank you, Kevin. I have very many of the 'short form' photocopies that you refer to, but of death certificates. An example of one of them is: Superintendents District, Wexford; Registrar's District, Crossabeg; Date and place; Ballyboggan. Of course, the Union on the certificate itself is Poor Law Union of Wexford. (By the way, that is for Catherine Murphy, so we could be related, too. My grandmother's name was Elizabeth Murphy.) My confusion is with the difference between the Registrar's and place of death (or birth). Both, in this case, are townlands. The Civil Parish is not on it at all. I have Ryan's book and Mitchell's Atlas, but they don't help with this. Do you, or anyone know the distinctions. It's even trickier for me on the Censuses. Milli
