My grandfather, William Connelly was born in Claremorris on February 17, 1883. I believe that he was from a village named Ballyglass Middle. This village name is from the gravesite of his father, Michael Connelly, in Illinois, USA.
What parish would they be from? Thanks for any help.

Hi,
Thanks for your message.
Ballyglass Middle is in the parish of Annagh. Here is a link to the Co. Mayo library which gives you the information on Ballyglass Middle:
