  1. Miss Lynch was the Land Lady of Liskeavy, Kilgeveran, and Práns near Ballyglass. When she died her brother James Lynch was the Land Lord of the district. She was a Land Lady for about seventy years.
    There were about sixty families in Liskeavy they were all evicted except a man named Brennen. She was mean to the people they did not like her at all. The people who were evicted had to go to England and some of them to the work-house
