  1. My Home District - Loughney

    Share Share Post
    My townsland is Loughney and its in the Parish of Graine. There are eight families in Loughney, and forth six people living there. The most common family name is Comerfort.
    There are two farmers houses and six cottages. There are no old people over seventy in Loughney. They did not learn any Irish long ago. Some people from this district went to America years ago.
    There is one big hill in Loughney and furzes and hazel bushes growing there. The land is very good. There are no streams, river bogs or woods there.
