   There was a number of weavers in this parish until that time. Two brothers, John and James Mc Keon lived in the townland of Tullyvacan. There is no trace of the house now. Peter Flynn owns their land. A man named Michael Mc Gourty (known by the name of "Morning" lived in the townland of Aughrim on the banks of the Yellow River beside where the "Metal Bridge" is now. He was a weaver. Some of the walls of his house are still to be seen. The land which he owned belongs now to Michael Mc Grail. A named named Fehily was a weaver in the townland of Carntulla. He lived in a house belonging to Tom Flynn.
