  1. My Home District

    Share Share Post
    My home is in the district of Ballindine and in the parish of Kilvine. There are ten families in the townland and the most of the houses are slated.
    There are old people living in the parish eighty, ninty and almost a hundred years old and they can tell lots of Irish stories.
    Long ago some of the people emigrated to America and others went to other villages where they got new holdens of land.
