I have found reference to the above surnames in places referrred to as Blakestown and/or Millextown.  Can anyone advise if these are in fact, located in the Ardee area? 

 

Many thanks!

  • Colleen:

    Blakestown (Shanlis parish) is definitely in the Ardee area. Can't find a Millextown. There is a Milestown but that townland is a couple parishes to the east of Ardee. Not sure if that is the townland you are looking for.

  • Likely Millextown is old spelling for Millockstown. Some detail of old churches there and elsewhere in Louth at http://stonecircle.bravehost.com/tours/2010/louthchurches.html

  • Liam Lowe,

    I just realized I never thanked you for the wonderful link you sent me, allowing me to view some of the old churches in County Louth ...where were my manners?  I also wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed reading about them all!  Until recently I had been unable to get back into this Ireland xo site and wanted to make sure that I did contact you for taking the time to answer my query!!!

     

    Again, Many thanks
