- The local people had seed for the following year. (?) This district was very thickly populated at that time & thousands (?) died by the wayside. The Government gave relief locally.
- People were found dead in all parts of this district. People were glad to eat turnips.
- Some time after the Famine a Government relief grant was given to Milford &, as a result, the road which extends from Milford to "Joe's Cross", on the Drumcollogher to Liscarroll road, was made. The workers received 4d. per day.
