- Famine years here were from 1845 to 1847. This year is called still "Black '47" The people lived on Indian meal & potatoes. A blight came on the potatoes and they rotted in the ground. Then there was no food, & no potatoes to sell for money & the corn was shipped from Waterford to foreign lands. Men, women & children died in hundreds in the district England helped people to sail from Waterford to America (Waterford is only three miles & thereabouts from Dunkitt or Strang's Mill district & four from Kilmacow. Dunkitt is part of the parish of Kilmacow. Both are situated on the Co Kilkenny side of the Suir) where there was money for all who could work. But the sick and the starving died on the way Others died of fever and hunger. The people wer forced towards the end of '47 to eat dogs etc. Others eat the grass & even dock-roots and anything else of that nature they could lay hands on Boiled nettles were also used
