According to Lewis (Topographical Dictionary, 1837). The Roman Catholic ‘Union’ of Lisdowney was composed of a number of Civil parishes. The civil parish of Aharney was the Head of the Union, and the civil parishes of Sheffin, Coolcashin, Baleen and parts of Rathbeagh and Grange. There were three chapels in this union and one of these was in Lisdowney.
The townlands listed in this extract from the Roman Catholic parish of Lisdowney are found in the civil parishes of Sheffin, Aharney (County Laois & County Kilkenny), Rathbeagh, Balleen, Grange and Coolcashin.
This section of what is seemingly the register for one Roman Catholic parish (‘seemingly’ if we go by it’s name), covers six parishes (some civil, some Roman Catholic) and two counties. It is mainly for the county of Kilkenny, but includes part of the Civil parish of Aharney that is in county Laois.
