Meath or Westmeath?

I found this baptismal record transcription on the subscription site Roots Ireland. If this record is for your Mary Fitzgerald then Rathwire townland in Killucan civil parish Co. Westmeath is the correct location.

Thanks for checking, Roger, but my great grandma was born 1866-1867.  I'm assuming the census taker was confused and wrote Meath instead of Westmeath.
