- There are two churches in the district New and old Kilbanavan. There is alot of graves in them. The New Church is in Dan Pembroke's land and the Old Church in Jerky Macmahon's land. There are many stories told about churches. You should never build a house with stones of a tomb or plough land where is tombs.
There was a navy blue suit of clothes and a letter in Kilmurry Church. The night was wet and the gaurds could read the letter. Every night afterwards a man used appear there. There was a church in Dromulton and it was removed over to Killsarcon. A headstone fell in the and it is there yet. There was an old church in Kilcusnin in Mike Prendivells land and there are bones there yet.
