  1. My Home District, by Peggy McKenna.
    Cloneylogan is the name of the townsland in which I live. Kildalkey is the name of my parish and Lune is the Barony.
    In Cloneylogan there are nine families and about seventy four people. There is but one thatched house in this townsland and three two-storey farmers houses and the rest are either two storey or one storey or one storey cottages.
    There were more houses in Cloneylogan long ago. About ten people emigrated to America from this townsland.
    The land of Cloneylogan is very flat and fertile and being flat it has no lakes in it.
    A stream called the Turry separates Cloneylogan from the townsland of Clonbarron.
    About one acre and a half of land
