  1. I live in the townland of Corballa, in the parish of Castleconnor, in the Barony of Tir Fhiachrach and in the county of Sligo.
    There are only five houses in in. They are all Farmers and have about twenty acres of land each.
    Corballa got its name from the from the twist of the way because there are a lot of twists and turns in it. There are three slated houses in it and two thatched houses.
    My townland is five miles from Ballina, a mile from the Church and a half mile from the school.
