This is a handy map of the registration districts. Note that they do not correspond to parishes, whether civil or religious (which also do not correspond to each other).
For most O'Grady/Dempsey research, which is for Cloonreliagh/Derreenteige, the district is Castlerea.
For Castlefield (Galway) and Moorfield research, district is Glenamaddy, just to the south.
The map shows that Carrick-on-Shannon is not that far away, just northeast of Castlereagh. So perhaps my theory on Mariah's brother Thomas is not to far off ... ?
