    A great storm blew over this this district on the month of February 1907.

    A great storm blew over this this district on the month of February 1907. It blew a cock of hay belonging to the Nolans over the district. It commenced in the evening and increased during the nihgt.
    The storm in 1839 blew all birds from Dublin to Galway. There was an old man living alone in a very lonely place. Some of the neighbours were coming to stay with him and they had to lay down until the storm decreased or they would be blown away.
