    I am living in the townland of Mayo and in the village of Cloonflynn. There are seventeen houses in the village. Sixteen slated and one thatched. There are about (75) seventy five people approximately. "Hughes" is the most common name in the village because there are six families of "Hughes" in the village. There are also five pensioners. There names are - Pat MacIntire; Paddy Fadden; William Murphy; Tom Maloney; and Michael Fallen; They have no Irish stories or Irish(Slior) songs but they can tell English stories. There were much more houses in the village long ago but they are knocked now and the people that were living in them are gone
