I can't figure out what parish my family came from.

Donegal

Hi, can someone help me with the parish please? My grandparents and great uncles and parents, aunts are all gone now, so I have no one to ask.

My grandfather's family use to live @ res: 24 in Drumerrin (Glengesh, Donegal..in the 1920 census. Thanks so much for reading this. I hope hope I did this right, I just found this sight and joined. Have a good day!

The correct civil parish for Drumirrin townland is Inishkeel.

There was no 1920 census in Ireland. I presume you were referring to the Elliott family in the 1901 census?

Let me know if you need additional information on your family.
