  1. My Home District
    I reside in the townland of Corryagan. There are four families and fifteen persons in it viz:-
    MacCardle family four persons, Connolly family two persons, Clann Crawley seven persons and Quinns two persons.
    My father bought our farm from John Martin some thirty years ago. My father came from Magheracloone and my mother from Culloville. My mother's name is MacGee and my grandmother's name was Burns who came from Aithne Cream being a daughter of one of the seven brother who owned same. Her parents were evicted and they got this place at Culloville.
