  1. My Home District - Drumcree, Delvin

    Share Share Post
    My townland is Drumcree. Part of the townland is in Delvin parish and part in Collinstown parish. The townland is in the barony of Delvin.
    There are twenty five houses in Drumcree and four are thatched and twenty are slated. There are five old people and their names are Barney Hannon, Kate Gibney, Johnny Tormey and Peter Daly & Mrs Mc Cormack. No one in Drumcree knows Irish. The houses were not more numerous formerly. Many people used to emigrate to America. There are one hundred and four people in Drumcree. The family names most common are Reilly, Lyons, Mc Cormack, Tormey and Mangan.
