Finding house in Leitrim Townland in Granard
My grandfather, Thomas McCarthy (1875-1943) was born in the Leitrim Townland of Granard. I know my people lived in the Leitrim Townland since at least 1834 (my GG-Grandfather and family are listed in the 1834 census). My G-Grandfather, Robert McCarthy (1828-1909) is listed in the 1901 census as living in house #3, which was next to house #2, a public house owned by Thomas Monaghan, and house #4 owned by Bridget Dawson. In 1911, my Great Uncle, Robert McCarthy (1865-1931) got the house and is listed in the 1911 census as living in house #17, which was next to house #16, a public house owned by James Monaghan, and house #18 owned by Francis Brown. I surmise it is the same house, just different numbers. Does anyone know where the listed houses are located? Or how I can I find out? My Great-Uncle's wife, Mary, died in 1941, and they had no children (they married in their forties), and I have no idea what happened to the house. Many thanks for your help! -Thomas McCarthy
