- There was a great battle fought in Tenekilla between the Danes and the Irish. It was one of the biggest in County Limerick. Cromwell never came into this vicinity. Some people say Cromwell went back to England, and died there. Carew and his army came into this parish, and he killed sixteen hundred people in the woods of Clonleharde and he burnt the houses and corn. The only thing remembered in this district about Cromwell is the habit the old people had of saying "The curse of Cromwell on it or on you."
