Townland Cooranassig (sic), Kilgarvan

[chrisos]

Hi listers
I have come across some Palmer baptisms listing Cooranassig (sic), Kilgarvan, Kerry as the PoB in the late 1840's to early 1850's.   I cannot locate this townland on https://www.townlands.ie/.  The family seem to have links to Slaghts which was another Kilgarvan townland.  I was wondering if it was a subtownland of Slaghts. 

Curanassig was recognised as a location on the 1826 Tithe Applotments.

Can anyone help me here?
Regards
Chris

It’s got at least one mention in a deed in 1833.

No.12

“And lands of Upper Cummeen and Cooanassig” so good chance it’s bordering Upper Cummeen.

Hi again Hanes
You are always so very helpful - my sincere thank you for the newspaper article.   This townland isn't mentioned in the 1847 Griffiths Valuations so I can only assume that it was absorbed into another townland, Fussa perhaps?
Separate question, can you tell me the web address for the newspaper article?  I need to do some searches in relation to other Kilgarvan folk. 
You were an amazing help with my NZ research earlier this year.
Many thanks
Chris

Chris,
You're welcome.
The newspaper articles are available via FindMyPast or British Newspaper Archive - both subscription sites. You can search BNA free but it costs to view the original

Trying to load a map which shows a Coolanasig just west of Kilgarvan - but gremlins in the works.

Are you familiar with Geohive Map Viewer?

Curanassig in the Tithe Applotment Books, a Cooper, 2 Foleys and a Green there back then:

Hi G
Most appreciative of all the help I have received.  At some point between 1826 and 1847 Cooranassig dropped off the radar, no doubt absorbed into another townland, possibly Ardtully.   May have been considered too small as a stand alone.  Thank you for your help.
Regards
Chris

I'm going to guess Slaght, for there is a baptism on 23 June 1850 (almost contemporaneous to Griffith's Valuation for that area) where a Patrick Palmer and Mary Sullivan of Cooranissig had their son John baptised:

Patrick Palmer is quite a distinctive name and Griffith's Valuation shows him in Slaght.

Added: Maybe should qualify that to say that at least a bit of it was in Slaght, for there's every possibility that it could have covered a bit of more than one townland.
