  1. Our Townland

    Share Share Post
    The name of our town-land is Corlecky. An old name for Corlecky is the Devil's Half-acre.
    There are seventeen families living in it which comprise about seventy people. There are two ruined houses people who used to live in them have gone to America.
    The land is good and sloping towards the river Finn which flows past our farm.
