BOURNEA

Extracted from "The Diocese of Killaloe – An Illustrated History" by Ciarán Ó Murchadha

In the eighteenth century Bournea was combined with the adjoining parish of Corbally, and both together were known subsequently as the united parishes of Bournea and Corbally. This arrangement lasted until 1846 when a radical realignment was made, in which most of medieval Bournea together with a few townlands from medieval Corbally became the parish of Bournea or Couraguneen. The boundaries have not changed since this realignment.
