Hi Jim,
As has been mentioned by Margaret the Poor Law Union aligns with the
Civil Registration District.
If you go to
www.seanruad.com and type Tullynaloob in the Townland box
and press enter it will show it as being in the Barony of Lurg, parish
of Drumkeeran and PLU of Lowtherstown (later renamed Irvinestown).
You can interrogate this site on Townland, Parish, PLU or even a whole
County.
For example if you just type Lowtherstown in the PLU box and press enter
it will list all the townlands in the PLU of Lowtherstown.
Cheers Ken

Hello Jim.
I cannot give you a precise answer -- but expect that many on here
will be able to do so.
However, here is a rough rule-of-thumb attempt to help you.
My GUESS is that the Registration District MIGHT be co-extensive with
the Parish.
So, IF this might be sort of close to correct, then merely go to that
wonderful seanruad site:
http://www.seanruad.com/
Select FERMANAGH for the County
and type in Derryvullan for the Parish
hit ENTER, and you should have a listing of all of the townlands in
the Derryvullan parish.
HTH. (although I see that it doesn't result in any hits for Pettigo
or
Tullynaloob)
