  1. Con Hickey Shinnagh, Jack Hickey Shinnagh, John Twomey Clounts, Denis Duggan Rathmore were the master tailors. Con HIckey had his two sons with him Jack Hickey and Con. They used to go home at night. They were paid with money. They made all kinds of clothes. If they had only a small bit of work to do they were only in the houses a couple of days but if they had a lot of work to do they stayed there for a week or more.
