My father Mr. J. O'Connor of Dromagh, told me the following story a few nights ago. This story relates to the burning of a church.
He said that when the English had passed Dromtariffe church they set fire to it, burning 400 people who had sought sanctuary there.
He said that next day they crossed the river and set fire to Kilcorney church. It was easy to set fire to these as they had thatched roofs on them.
He said that Dromagh castle surrendered just three weeks after the burning of the church.- Faisnéiseoir

- My mother Mrs. J O'Connor of Domagh told me the following story. She said that an old woman named "Joan the Captain" who lived 100 yards below this church now a nun, told how she was going to mass on a certain Sunday and having no clocks at the time and fearing she was too late for the service, turned into the graveyard to say her prayers.
When she entered she saw two candles lighting and heard the little bell ringing at mass.
