Ryans - "To Hell or to Connacht"

'Confiscation cannot take away a right'

(The O'Donoghue to Sir Marmaduke Travers in Charles Lever's Novel The O'Donoghue, 1845) via Marnane's From Landed Estates to Family Farms. Land Ownership in Tipperary

See this wikipedia link for more about the Act for the Settlement of Ireland

I have been working on trying to figure out the original townland names for as many of the Ryans that feature in Simington's Transplantation to Connacht and tieing in where they were scheduled to be transplanted to. 

That has expanded out a little to include those mentioned in O'Mahoneys paper in the North Munster Antiquarian Journal - "Cromwellian Transplantation from Limerick"

This is the spreadsheet tracking the work below. Those coloured red I have been able to identify placename wise and have written about.

If anyone can identify any of the placenames I haven't been able to find, let me know. It would be a great help. 

The links below are to the individual placenames / individuals.
