   [Mr.] Keogh 68 Aughavannagh.

   This man was a workman for Parnell & the Redmond family & is the caretaker of the Aughavannagh BKs. He showed me the well of Parnells jaunting car which is in his yard & rooted up his hearthstone to show me some Ogam or Irish which was printed upon it. It turned out to be however "the grass is green"
   Mrs. O Toole holds that Aughavannagh was originally inhabited by Kellys & later O Tooles but Keogh gave me the names of the following families now not to be found here but are still in other parts of the County as having been here "from 'Noah's flood."
   Lyons. [Ryland?], Vines, Moulds, Doherty & Padraic. Five Kelly families came after.
