    The name of my native district is Derrycoosh. It is situated almost in the centre of the Parish of Islandeady in the Barony of Cara in the County Mayo about three miles west of Castlebar.
    It is a fairly large district, as there are thirty five houses in it, and a population of one hundred and sixty eight in the year 1937, and there are about three hundred and fifty acres of arable land and moor-land or bog land.
