- Graigavalla.
My native place is in the parish of Rathgormack about three miles south of the village.It is named Graigavalla and is so called because there was a villge at the Gap,there,long ago.There are nine houses in it -six farmers' and three labourers'.
There are remains of several old houses in it and there is a place in Kirwan's farm called the "sráidín".There is a field in our farm called the "Schoolhouse Field" and people say that in the bad times there was a master teaching his classes there.More people say that there was an old school long ago.
There are 1217 acres in Graigavalla.
