    daughter is still residing in Ballinageragh and she remembers to see her mother making the starch and she used also help her to make it.
    There is also another old woman living in my district and she used to make starch about seventy years ago. This old woman's name is Mrs Dore and she is now about eighty-five years of age and is still very healthy.
