Some kind soul sent me a copy of the 1901 Census for a family living in Wales, who all were born in ireland (very grateful, by the way!) However, I'm really struggling to make sense of the Irish place names. I've tried Googling without much luck! Would anyone like to have a go at these - unlikely as they may look: Enniscorthy Noyne Tacumoane Larysisland St Iberias Ring Turacre Penaer I'm open to suggestions and would be very grateful if anyone actually KNOWS any of these places!

You are so kind - thank you so very much. I did try Googling, but got a bit bogged down (ni Irish joke intended or offence meant!) Thanks again. Chris |
