Hello. I’m looking for a farm that was at one time owned by Maloney family. My mother visited it over 40 years ago. She has paddy and wanted to visit in September. Clooneen is not a big area but I o ly have an old photo to go by
John:
Clooneen is 160 acres in size so a small townland in Killahan civil parish. There were only three households in the townland in 1911 including the Patrick Moloney family. https://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Kerry/Causeway/Cloneen/272131/

Thank you so much for the response. According to the census they lived in house 3. Is there a way to cross reference that to a specific plot of land?
Regards
John
John:
The house numbers were assigned by the RIC constables who collected the census returns in each townland. The first house visited was house 1, second house visited was house 2, etc. So you can't cross reference to a specific plot of land.
