    There is a field called the black garden and there was a grave-yard in it long ago. The tracks of the graves are still to be seen.
    Gibbery is the name of another field it is so called because long ago they used to massacre the people in that spot.
    Fearnahine is the name of a field in Johnstown owned now by Mr. Moran but formerly owned by Mr. Austin.
