Subject: [LegacyUG] Coslough, Ireland



I know this is off-topic, but maybe someone has a short answer to help me?



I have a person born 1798, died 1817, place given as Coslough, Ireland. Some of 
her relatives were in Wicklow.

Online searches find numerous lough's (= Scottish loch?) in Ireland. And a hint 
that the locality Coslough is in County Louth.

Confused!
