Daithi ~ if you're still there ~ could you tell us where in Mayo the Mayo Gaeltacht is located? Just curious...

I have relatives in east Mayo, outside Ballyhaunis and very near the boundary with Co Roscommon, and was fortunate enough to be able to visit, briefly, a few years ago. So, I have a little familiarity with the area.

I'm aware that there is a Gaeltacht in Co Galway. Is the Irish-speaking part of Mayo, perhaps, close to Connemara/Galway?
