Place names

Seems to be corroborated in this article by Everard. I can get full access to the article at an academic library from tomorrow if you can't access without subscription and would like the full quote. Obviously, the two Rev. gentlemen were possibly not researching independently. You can contact me by e-mail if you think I can assist further on this.

Just took a look at it, Its a while since i read it and i think its a matter of interpretation,. Everard says he doesnt share the views of Power in some local place names including Clogheen, and then appears to side with Dr. Joyce. I looked up Joyces book and refers to Clogheen as stony land or a place full of round stones.

Everard also in that paper mentions a 1693 reference to Burnt Clogheen and Clogheen o' the market.

In Everard other paper on "Burntcourt" Castle (page 76),he lists three Clogheen's in the area: first, Clogheen outright which is present day Burncourt, secondly Clogheen a Piseoge (a townsland near the Galtees) and thirdly Clogheen o'the Market aka Everards Market aka Cloghinemoneyhoney (Clogheen of the shrubery of the firewood)

So overall its all rather confusing, I think i will leave the entry as is, it is probably sufficiently vague anyway Padraigobrian (talk) 19:46, 4 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You've clearly given this some thought, and are probably right. I'm coincidentally quite familiar with 'Cloheenafishoge' townland from way back (several anglicized variants) and am linking just for your general info. I think you're correct that 'Clogheen' appears to have been a name in use at some stage for the wider area. Write the name entry up as you see best, I won't challenge.

Hope the OSI link works, it can be temperamental depending on browser. If not, follow the Thonnog river upstream from Ballylooby until before it crosses the R639 (M8) near Kilcoran. Best. RashersTierney (talk) 09:20, 5 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
