- George Twiss was the landlord of this district. He lived in a big house near Birdhill Village. They came to Birdhill in the early fortys or in the early fiftys years. These people came from Kerry in those years. He got Birdhill property from the Ormbegs as they had no issue. The year after George Twiss had possession he evicted forty familys and made all large farms which we can see to day in all parts of the district. In his greed to make money he raised rents forty per cent on the tenants, and after an lapse of five years he put on twenty per cent more. This was a great hardship and burden on all the tenants and many of them were unable to meet the rent ? on gale day. Unless the rent was paid on gale day the people were evicted and most of the evicted tenants went to America as he would not allow any of them to settle on or near his lands. He ruled with a rod of iron until he was sixty years of age when he became a raving lunatic. Two men were employed to watch over him. His lunacy lasted for four years when he died. There was not much sorrow in the hearts of his tenants. They were proud to hear his early death.
