I am searching for James Flanagan born circa 1815 in Roscommon. We will be travelling to Ireland in May and hope to find a cemetery in Cloonfower. Any advice? I have taken his age from the 1881 census in Wirral Cheshire.

Heather,

County Roscommon has two townlands named Cloonfower, one in Kilkeevan Civil Parish and the other in Termonbarry Civil parish.

Search also for Flanigan and Flanegan.

For Tithe Applotment records see
Termonbarry Civil parish see LDS film 256693 (1824).
Kilkeevin Civil parish see LDS film 256633 (1832)

For change of occupiers 1852-c1920 of Cloonfower townland, Kilkeevin Civil parish check LDS film 867973.

Cloonfower townland, Kilkeevin Civil parish, is in Castlereagh Catholic parish. The townland border adjoins Loughglynn Catholic parish.

The LDS British Isles Vital records CD lists numerous baptisms in Loughglynn Catholic parish for James Flanagan 1817-1825.

Do you know the names of James’ parents or siblings?

At Griffith’s Valuation in 1857 there was no Flanagan in Cloonfower townland, Termonbarry Civil parish. There were 24 Flanagan occupiers Cloonfower townland, Kilkeevan Civil parish as follows:
