    From Newtown
    Haslems, Cooneys.
    Most of the younger members emigrated to Australia. There was free emigration in those days. Some of the families are no longer remembered in the parish. In Cloongaheen and Cragg town lands where there are now about a dozen houses, Mr O'Neill (already referred to) remembers to have seen 50 families.
