Finding house in Leitrim Townland in Granard

Why not email a query to the Longford Leader? https://www.longfordleader.ie.   Hopefully someone will be able to assist you.

The house nos. in the census were actually not house nos.--they indicated the order of visitation by the enumerator.

Thogjr,   Are you familiar with Griffiths Valuation?
It's not the easiest sites to navigate so I have done it for you.
This is the map where the house is. When you open the link. you will see a circle, inside that is an oblong in red. If you zoom in slow to the right hand side of the oblong there is a small grey patch.
This is Granard.   It's just above the "R" on the word Granard. Go slow until you see Main Street, at the cross road, see the road going north, then you come to New Street, look left and you will see Plot 6.
Griffiths Valuation says this is where McCarthy is listed, in Leitrim, Granard.  There is a Thomas McCarthy in another townland called Killinawas, Granard.

Hi Margot,

Thanks for your reply! I've used the Griffith's Valuation site before and plot #6 is rented by James Dawson; my GG-Grandmother, Frances McCarthy (Mrs. McCarthy) is listed at plot #6a, which should be a subplot of #6 (according to Griffith's indexing) but not shown on the map. I know the 'house numbers' are not the actual house numbers just the order that the enumerator visited, and the 1901 & 1911 enumerators didn't follow Griffith's in their numbering. I was hoping that someone from the Granard area might recognize the public house (which wasn't shown on the Griffith's map) and then I might be able to figure out where the house could have been. I will probably try Patricia's suggestion to query the Longford Leader and hopefully catch the eye of someone who lived in the area. Many thanks for the help!

To narrow a bit more, in 1901 the Public House was listed as Thomas Monaghan.
In the actual census it says he was a farmer.
in 1911 Thomas Monaghan's son was the James in 1901, he became the Publican.

Hi Tom,

There is a very well informed Granard local historian called Fr Tom Murray PP. I think if anyone can help you it would be him. You can find a lot of his work on Youtube one being 'The burning of Granard'

Hi Paul,

Thanks for the tip! I have actually watched the Burning of Granard video — probably about six months ago. I will try and see if I can get in touch with Fr. Murray. Many thanks for your help!

Warm Regards,

Tom
