Can someone please decipher this birthplace entry in the 1871 England Census. Ancestry transcribes it as Bal Bromnor but I haven't managed to find such a place in Ireland.
But the "Ireland, Roscommon" and "Bai Bromnor" entries are on two different lines, for two different people. Why then the assumption that "Bai Bromnor" is in Ireland?
None of the other entries on that page run over from one line to the next.
If for some reason people still think it is related to Ireland, then how about the following:
If you look closely, I think you will see that it is not Bai, but Bal. That would be a version of the Anglicization of the Gaelic Baile.
With that insight, the entry would appear to be a mangling or phonetic rendition of one of the Ball... or Bally.... townlands. Several possibilities, such as Ballyboughan?
