   the district for example James Duffy of the townland of Aghanafaren is known as "Jemie Red". The use of the word 'Red', as in this case, is I believe unique. Owen Murtagh of the townland of Aghnafaren is known as "Oweney the Mare" - The district in which he lives was always, & is still the poorest in the parish - the possession of a single working mare on his farm (not more that seven or eight acres of indifferent land) was enough to single him out as a man of substance in the eyes of his poorer neighbours.
