    (continued from previous page)
    Dromiscane and Duaragil Castles were also former strongholds of the O Keffes.
    There were two landlords in some townlands and each landlord ruled over four tenants.
    The tithes were collected in this district in former times. The tenants used give one tenth of every crop they produced each year to the landlord and if not they would be evicted. Th tithes were collected both in money and in kind.
