Civil Survey Notes - Tonetiry / Ballykinlalee

Tonetiry / Ballynoe / Ballykinlalee

Tonetiry / Ballykinlalee

I haven’t been able to pinpoint Tonetiry exactly but it appears to be near Ballykinlalee. Ballykinlalee does feature on the Down Survey maps but isn’t included in the Civil Survey document.

In Ballykinlalee we have the following

Morrogh Ryan of Ballynoe Gent

Teige me Keoagh of Ballynoe Gent

Dermot Ryan of Ballynoe Gent

Donogh Ryan of Ballynoe Gent

Connor Ryan of Ballynoe Gent

In the Hearth Money Rolls for Ballykinalee there are a number of Mc surnames

There is an Owen Mc Donogh and a William Mc Dermod.

Could they be sons of Donogh Ryan and Dermot Ryan? Obviously without the definite location for Tonetiry it is just conjecture at the moment.

Morrogh Ryan is interesting as well, Morrogh or Maurice is rare among Ryans to my knowledge.

In nearby Ballinahinch there are Edmund & Daniel McMorrogh, could there be a connection?
