Thanks for the response, but I should have mentioned that I believe it to be in the Malin peninsula somewhere.

See www.thecore.com/seanruad to find townlands in Ireland- be sure to change default setting from exact match to search for part of a name.

Thanks,I will try that link. Although having looked at the map of Donegal I think the previous post from Annraoi may have pinpointed it, as Malin is in the
Inishowen peninsula.
Appreciate both of your help.
