    I live in the townland of Kiltomey. It is in the parish of Kilcaragh and the barony of Glanmaurice and the County of Kerry. There are about thirteen houses in the townland and the approximate number of people living in it is sixty. The family name most common is Connor. Most of the houses are slated and very few are thatched. There are three old people in the townland. Two of them live with their sons and daughters and the other lives by himself.
