Where is this place name in Ireland please
« on: Friday 29 August 14 14:26 BST (UK) »
I am looking at the 1911 census for Hannah Robinson aged 63 living at 25 Getley St Birkenhead, can any one help me read the place name please.

It looks like Ballyanan to me - which is a townland in County Cork

Hi

It agree,  looks like Ballyanon

If you google that, a number of hits :
Ballyanon or Ballyanan, Ballyannan,  near Midleton, Cork

Cheers
