In 1837, Samuel Lewis's Topographical Dictionary of Ireland described Ballinagar like this:
BALLINAGAR, a village, in the parish and barony of GEASHILL, KING'S county, and province of LEINSTER, 2 ½ miles (S. W.) from Philipstown, on the road from Edenderry to Tullamore; containing 32 houses and 153 inhabitants. A large and handsome R. C. chapel for the union or district of Ballykean is in course of erection, in the ancient English style of architecture.—See GEASHILL.
