  1. The name of my townland is Shountullig. It is in the Parish of Schull and in the West Division of West Carbery. There is a population of about forty-six people in it. There is one Cullinane family, one Sullivan family, three Levis families, one Donovan family, one Moynihan family, one Hayes family, one Hodnett family and one Copithorne family and one Hegarty man in the townland. There are four Protestant families and seven Catholic families in it. There is but one person over seventy living there. She is eight-three years of age. Her name is Mrs. Moynihan.
    Houses were more numerous in former times. The old ruins were knocked down and drawn away. Some people sold their farms and went to live in America and Australia and other countries.
