Person:John O'Halloran (5)

• Knockanalban townland is in the Parish of Kilmurry-Ibrickane Parish. The O'Halloran Family lived on a farm in the North East corner of the townland on the Killernan Road near Ahy Bridge. This was also known as Mount Scott. There were subdivisions in this townland that the locals used to differentiate their area. The O'Hallorans were from Knocknageragh. The others subdivision names were: Loughaneliegh, Freehanes, Parknageehy and Quartermyer. Another names that were used in the parish records were Ahy or Ahy Bridge. This name was not used in the civil records.
