Checking townlands in Hospital & Herbertstown, there are several that begin with Ball* and it could be a misspelling or a phonetic variation of several of them.

One that seems most likely is "Ballyloundash."

Reversing the image this is what I see, but I could not find it in a list of towns in Ireland.

Ballinlun'das or something close…..

The spellings for townlands, family surnames, etc were only as good as the person could spell and write. And what is the correct spelling ? The oldest variation , or the newest? There can be many variations. Makes the search SO much more interesting.
