What is this Town/District in Clifden, County Galway?

[u/PaintingsOfRebellion]

No. 27, George McDermott

I see he was married in the Roman Catholic Chapel of Tully which was in the Union of Clifden of County Galway.

But what is the neighborhood/town and what is the Registrar’s District?

Also if they are not around today what would be its modern name for that area, just curious?

Registrar district is probably Renvyle

Can't make out the other bit, might start with Cloon which is the Irish for meadow.

Edit: probably here, Cloonloouan

Cloonlooaun (Cloonluaun) beside Tully in Galway I reckon. Spelling definitely wasn’t strict in these records

Where’d you find this record?

Irishgenealogy.ie

I forgot to mention this is 1876

It will give you the registrar's district on the index entry for the record on irishgenealogy.

[u/PaintingsOfRebellion → u/The_Little_Bollix]

On the index it says “SR District/Reg Area: Clifden” which matches up with the Union not the register.

I’ve only ever noticed IrishGenealogy says the “union” district on their indexes NOT the “register” district, town, or county names.

Cliften would be one of the main registration districts for Galway.
