  1. My Home District. Nov. 1938.
    I live in the townland of Lonaugh, in the parish of Killargue, in the barony of Dromahaire and in the poor law union of Manorhamilton.
    The landlord of Lonaugh was MacTernan and his descendants got the rent of it until May 1938. It must be paid to the Irish Land Commission in future.
    There are eight families in the townland Four of those families are MacTernans but thirty years ago seven families were MacTernans.
    The population of it is forty-seven but some years ago it was nearly double that number.
