Barna is the name of an electoral district in Galway, located to the west of Galway city.  You can find more info about Barna at this link:  https://www.townlands.ie/galway/barna/

Barna is within the Catholic parish of Salthill (which also covers some other areas).  The National Library of Ireland has many Catholc parish regsiters available online.  Unfortunately, as disclosed at this link, they have none available for Salthill:  https://registers.nli.ie/parishes/0644

The page at the first link above includes info about the townlands within Barna, and there appear to be only seven of them.  At the link for each townland, there are further links to the 1901 and 1911 census records for the townland, as well as Griffith's Valuation (mid-1800's), if they are available.  Since there are so few townlands involved, you might try searching for your family in each of them.

If you post the names of your ancestors here, with whatever dates you have for them, someone may be able to find them in one of the available genealogical databases.

I am looking for the wife of a great, great grandfather named WIlliam Gill.  Stats are:  Born 1824, Died 1883.  I have a name of his wife but do not know if it's correct.  Margaret Feeney 1824-1873.  They would have had a child, Bartholomew Gill born 1847, who married Kate or Catherine Hernon 5/10/1870.  Her parents were Denis Hernon and Bridget Greaney I think.  This would have been in Aille Barna I believe.  Thank you.
