- About 50 years ago there was a man named Tony Mac Guinness who lived in Lenavinia. He sent two men to ask this girl from Aughoose. They succeeded in getting her. After a few nights they made the match. They went to the church and got married. When they came home they had a good wedding. On the following day they began to fight. The girl left him and was seen no more. It was not long after until another girl came to live with him. They got married and had five in family. It was heard that his wife was in America. She died there.
