To an English person hearing his Irish accent I wonder if it says Clare (as in County Clare?) something?

I played around with it a bit, not sure it helps any but worth a try.
At this point I wouldn't even be sure it starts with a C.

Clare Island,Co Mayo?
Who were the witnesses to his marriage?
Sometimes they prove to be siblings of the bride and groom.

Hi there,
There's a Clareisland in County Clare - but I'm not 100% sure that this is what it says !

Hi there
Presuming that it's a townland that Michael has given here are a list that begin with cle*
cle* townlands of ireland
OR
cla* townlands of ireland
'carol...' what does the transcription of the image say for his wife's place of birth as 'to me' the first letter of her's and Michael's place of birth look the same !
Frankie the site that I have given you the link for can be played around with to see if you can narrow down the search with more letters from the word that you are sure of.
