Churchview

GalwayCastleblakeney (Galway)

Can anybody tell me exactly where this would have been in the 1850s? All the documents relating to my ancestor give this as his address. Does the area still exist?

Hi Julie

I am not from the area but  there is a church marked on the historic map - I can only assume that Church View was (and maybe still is known as) the area around that site. I attach an image from the historic map 1829-41 below to give you an idea. You can see a photo HERE too that provides a link to a street map too. 

This is a description from 1837

All the best
