  1. (continued from previous page)
    years ago. Each farmer had two small, mud houses in the land, where labourers lived. These mud houses are not in ruins, and the families reared in them are mostly in America.
    The land is hilly and boggy, is good for potatoes and oats, but not rich enough to grow wheat or beet. The river Feale flows through the townland of Rockchapel.
