Hello,
I could use some help with locations in Meath. I've googled and mapped out everything I can, but I think I need some local knowledge. (I am cross posting in Geronstown as both parishes are mentioned.)
On tithe, John Downes has a farm in "Gormanlough, Stackallan parish."
On Griffiths, his son Michael has a farm in "Rochestown, Parish of Geronstown" (which is part of the union of Stackallan?).
When I plot out the location in Rochestown from Griffith's, it is in modern day Gormanlough, which doesn't exist on Griffith's but did on the tithe. (Help!)
First, I'm trying to confirm that this would be the same farm that was passed from father to son (From John on Tithe to Michael on Griffith's). It's still in the family in 1901 and 1911, having gone to Michael's son James Downes.
Second, Is there a way I can track it after that?
Thanks for any assistance you can provide! ~ Ann
