Not pedantic at all - correctness requires us to tease out all the finer details. In OSM being pedantic is a virtue ;-) Townlands in separate civil parishes are still legally townlands in their own right: see http://www.histpop.org/ohpr/servlet/PageBrowser?path=Browse/Census%20%28by%20date%29/1901/Ireland&mno=453&pageseq=46 You can also check the 1911 supplement to see if there were any subsequent changes. http://www.histpop.org/ohpr/servlet/TOC?path=Browse/Census%20%28by%20date%29/1911/Ireland&active=yes&mno=460&tocstate=expandnew&display=sections&display=tables&display=pagetitles In the case of baronies, as they were not changed as townland boundaries changed there are cases where the boundary will just go through the middle of a townland though.
