Marriage Index 1836 to 1838 (complete for these years)
This set of parish records during the years 1836-38 seem to include townlands from the following Civil Parishes:
Ballon : Ballyellin : Fennagh : Gilbertstown and Kellistown
Quite often, the same townland names are found in more than one parish. In such cases, it is assumed that the townland as listed in these parish records belongs to a civil parish that lies beside the civil parish of Ballon. Where placenames do not exactly match a spelling as found in the 1851 townland directory the 1851 spelling is listed in the townland/civil parish table (see Townland Index ). The location (civil parish) of some townlands remains unidentified.

The name of each townland was taken as spelled and compared against townland names as listed in the 'Index to the Townlands and Towns, Parishes and Baronies of Ireland, 1851'. Townland names which were phonetically similar to those listed in the above reference occurring in Ballon Civil Parish were taken to be the townland as listed. If a townland name was given as occurring in one or more civil parish in 1851, then the parish which touches on Ballon Civil parish was taken as being the Civil parish to which the townland belonged. It is probably that Ballon Hill was in Ballon civil parish - it is listed as being unidentified in the table. Questionmarks indicate the 'best guess'
