    In the townland of Letterilly their is a hill which they call Boyle's Bray. The way that this bray got its name was by a man the name of Charles Boyle who lived in it and ever afterwards the people named it Boyle's Bray.
    Their is another place Convenient to where I live and it is called Cruacnamain. It was called this name because there was two men drowned in it and there was another man burned in it, and afterwards the people that lived in it called it Cruacnamain.
