Griffiths Valuation.Derry was originally Doire Chalgaigh [dirra khalagee] ‘Calgach's oak-wood'. Later, the place was known as Doire Cholm Cille ‘Columcille's oak-wood' from a monastery founded by St Columcille in 546AD. In 1613 Derry was renamed Londonderry by the planter London Companies on account of their association with the city of London, while the former county of Coleraine was also renamed Londonderry. The city is partly in the barony of Tirkeeran and partly in the barony of North-West Liberties of Londonderry. In official governmental documents in Northern Ireland and Great Britain, the city and townland is generally referred to as Londonderry; in the Republic of Ireland, it is referred to as Derry. For historical references, see Londonderry. (Source: Placenamesni.org)	Ebrington Irish or Alternate Name: Ebrington. Map: Google Maps  OpenStreetMap Places Nearby: Click for list Griffiths Valuation.

The Townlands of Templemore Civil Parish

The townlands in Templemore Parish (An Teampall Mór) are those taken from Templemore Parish on Logainm.ie and validated against townlands on the 1851, 1871 and 1901 Lists of Towns and Townlands and Griffiths valuations data. A link is provided in the notes for the 1901 and 1911 census. Please note that these may not always work if the townland was not available on the census in question. The census site may also substitute a similar name so be prepared for unexpected results! Similar for Griffith's valuation links which may show multiple names. Where a townland has been transferred to a new parish the census links are on the new parish page.

If the townland has a category it will be linked in the table below. If there is no link and you need the category please contact David to get the category created or put in a request for the category to be created. Alternatively, if you feel condifent to do so, see Townland Category Information Boxes below for how to create them yourself.

Townland	Irish and/or Alternate name(s)	WikiTree Category Link	Census links, Griffiths link & Notes
Ballougry	Baile Dhúdhoire		1901 Census, 1911 Census Griffiths Valuation. There is an entry for a townland called Balloughry which appears, as far as can be discerned, to be the same locality. The PlacenamesNI entry is a single one: Ballougry, County Derry. Unfortunately the map on PNI is of no help in resolving this.
Ballyarnet	Baile Airneáil		1901 Census, 1911 Census Griffiths Valuation.
Ballymagowan	Baile Mhic an Ghabhann		1901 Census, 1911 Census Griffiths Valuation. The portion of this townland shown on Townlands.ie as being in Londonderry Urban 2 E.D. does not exist on Logainm.ie, in other words their map only shows the Liberties Upper portion. Regardless of that this a central part of Derry-Londonderry City. Please use that category instead..
