- I live in the townland of Tullinamalroe, Parish of Castle-Blayney, Barony of Cremorne and the Electoral District of Carrickaslane. The town-land of Tullinamalroe is situated about three miles from Castleblayney and about two and a half miles from Lisnagrieve school. It got its name from the red surface and the high hills. Though it is large it is not thickly populated. The people are all very strong and well able to work. The land is very fertile and it produces great crops.
Most of the houses are all two storyed and slated. The farmers are all very wealthy and have large farms. There is a river seperating this town-land from Enyroe. White is the commonest name in the district and all the people are black-haired.
