    Share Share Post
    Lord Crofton who lives in Mote Park, Co. Roscommon was the local landlord
    His ancestors came there during the reign of Queen Elizabeth at the end of the 16th century.
    Tithes were collected for the Protestant Churches by Tithe Gatherers in this locality.
    The rents were usually paid in money but were seldom or never paid in kind.
    Lowther was originally the family name.
