There are 12 townlands in Ireland with Tullymore in the name (7 just called Tullymore) in Down, Armagh, Fermanagh and King's Co.
See www.thecore.com/seanruad to find townlands in Ireland (search for 'Tullymore' anywhere in name in database)
If the spelling isn't accurate Tullamore is also a possiblity.

Were you expecting this 'Tullymore' to be in or near Co. Dublin? Perhaps is you give us an idea of names and dates we might be able to find the correct place for you.

There were actually two Tullymores in County Down.  One is now Newcastle (where Tullymore Forest Park is), and the other was about 2 kms. north of Newry and is not in existence anymore.

Actually the park is called Tollymore not Tullymore.

Also, "the other was about 2 kms. north of Newry and is not in existence anymore." the townland still exists although road names have meant that many people aren't aware of the townland names these days.

www.seanruad shows both Tullymore townlands in Co. Down- I mentioned there were quite a few in reply #3.

I'm thrilled to learn that the Tullymore near Newry is still in existence.  Thanks for the info!  It's where my family came from.
