Tullahaun

MayoAnnagh (Mayo)

Hello,

Can anyone please clarify for me exactly why Tullaghaun is given in many records for Bllybeg in the Annagh Parish in co. Mayo?

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

Tullaghaun and Ballybeg are adjacent townlands (Ballybeg is just to the east of Tullaghaun).  https://www.townlands.ie/mayo/costello/annagh/course/ballybeg/ Is it possible the family in question had land in both townlands?

Is Tullysleva the same as Tullaghaun? I have some dna matches to MUNNELLY from Tullysleva

Tullysleva is in Kilbefad civil parish, and I believe in the Catholic parish of Backs.  You can find more info about Tullysleva here: https://www.townlands.ie/mayo/tirawley/kilbelfad/ballina-rural/tullysle…

Tullaghaun is in Annagh civil parish, where the Catholic parish has the same name.   That parish is 20-30 miles southeast of Backs.  You can find more info about it here:  https://www.townlands.ie/mayo/costello/annagh/course/tullaghaun/

You can access Catholic parish records for Backs at this site, and you can move to other parishes using the interactive map which you'll see there:  https://registers.nli.ie/parishes/0738
