Title: Fanet -where is it?
Post by: eilean donan on Tuesday 15 February 11 23:24 GMT (UK)

Hi

Please can someone tell me where Fanet  is? My  great great uncle was born there and it is most likely to be in Donegal?
I have his date of birth and parents names but I cannot find Fanet on the map, or in Irish Place Names.

Thanks

There's a Fanad in Donegal- could that be the place?

It is the old name for Fanad in Donegal

There is still a Parish of Fannet (RC and Presbyterian)
