Maps of Co Tipperary Ireland Showing Ballingarry and Thurles Areas

Three maps of Co Tipperary Ireland showing Thurles and Ballingarry and surrounding areas.

These maps show the area that the Fannings came from. They show the relative proximity of Ballingarry to the Thurles area where the Fannings lived from the mid 1700s to the present day.

According to this site “Before Oliver Cromwell came to Ireland the land of Ballingarry belonged mainly to the Lismolin branch of the Butler family, three Fanning brothers, the Earl of Ormonde and a Marnell family of Lisnamrock. The only castle which was intact after the Cromwelliam campaign was at Farranrory.”
