Dear Liz, Glin is the name of the catholic parish, which people oten used as as the place of birth. The townlands you named are in this Catholic parish and the name of the Civil parish is Kilfergus.
The boys you found in Griffths' Valuation are probably related in some way at one time, but from different families. You need to check Tithe records, as will probably be a differnt generation and more likely to be a father of the boy, you are looking for. I have no connection with the family you are looking for but with the Dillane surname in one of the townlands you mentioned.
As well as Glin in Kilgergus Civil Parish. There is another townland in Limerick,oncew called Glin, which goes by another name currently. Bye, Mary.
