- Our farm is situated in the townland of Garryduff. Parish of Kilbeggan. Barony of Moycashel. Co Westmeath. There is a hill on our land called the Prushia Hill. It got this name because a Queen named Prushia lived there. There is another hill called the Church Yard Hill. It is so called because a lot of people were buried there.
