  1. Lord Rossmore was the landlord of this district. The families were settled about the ulster plantation.
    Lord Rossmore was a good landlord plantings and evictions were carried out in the district. Some evicted people went to America and some hired out and went to the poor house and others went back into their houses and were put in jail for going back after been evicted. The English came into Ireland. They were officers of Cromwell and they received in repayment for their services. The land was divided under guidance.
