  1. My Home District - Corballis

    Share Share Post
    I live in Corballis. It is in the parish of Ballivor. There are six families in it. They are nearly all young people. All the houses are thatched. There were more houses in it long ago, but they are all knocked, and overgrown with weeds and nettles. Six people emigrated from my district to America. The land is very high and good for crops. There are two rivers in my district, "Stoneyford," and the "Black Lake." There is no songs or stories connected with my district. All the houses are fairly old.
