- There is nobody in this locality now, who remember the famine of 1846-47 but, the old people have heard stories of it. It affected this district very much.The district was thickly populated before the famine and it is said that there were twice as many people living in it as there are now. At that time there were five houses in "Mullac na Giorrfiad", six in Glounaclohy seven in Counkilla and there were nine families living together in the same townland. The remains of those houses are still to be seen.The older generation say that a fog spread over the district during the month of June and that it was in this fog the blight came. The potatoes did not ripen at all that year. It is said that potato-seed was so scarce the year after that the women had to take the shoot out of the potato with a quil. The remainder of the potato was used for food. Their shoot was planted very carefully.
