- About one hundred years ago there lived in the townland of Killydesart a man called Jack Gregg, who was a great jumper. He was able to jump nine “Dutch Hoggets” or barrels in a row, jumping out of one into the other. He was also a great violinist.
- Once upon a time there was a man in Dromore called Robert Dobson and he was a great mower.
He would start about seven o'clock in the morning and he would have two acres mown about eight o'clock at night.- Collector
