- The Wood-Martins were the landlords of Bloomfield district. They evicted two families who lived in the townland of Ballinakill around the year 1890. The names of these families were Lang and Murphy. They were evicted because they were unable to pay the rent and they were left to go anywhere they liked. There were police at the eviction to prevent trouble but there was none.
The Langs and the Murphys went to America.- Collector
