On the old 1828-1845 Map The area of Ballynascarry is shown as 628 acres 1 rood and 13 perches.

These two Townlands are about 1 mile apart.
Unfortunately the only census records available for searching online are from 1901 and 1911. The two previous Census Record papers were ‘recycled’ due to a paper shortage during the Great War 1914-18.
There is a Patrick Early, Aged 64, not married and living alone in Ballynascarry in 1901. The Census record can be seen at http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Westmeath/Finnea/Ballynascarry/1778883/
This Patrick Early was therefore born in 1837.
The Electoral District(DED) is Finnea. There are some Flood surnames around that DED area also in the 1901 Census.
