Look elsewhere on these WONDERFUL pages and you'll see: Kilbegnet & Glinsk is a Catholic parish near Ballymoe; there are two Keeloges, one near Boyle and one near Athlone; your "Knocknagur" may be Knockacorha near Boyle. So, 2 out of 3.<br>There was a John Burke, Chief Constable, who authored "Exposure of Frauds, etc." in 1828. Was this your ancestor?<br>

Re: Roscommon Peace Preservation Force
William Burke lived at Glinsk Castle (maybe a forefather?) and his is buried across the road. A cousin by marriage lives in Creggs. She has a fair amount of information with regard to Glinsk Castle and William Burke. If you haven't found what you are looking for at this point, I'll write to her for you. Let me know...
