- About six families were evicted during the Land League.
There was an election at that time. Nolan was a Catholic and French was a Protestant and the landlords voted for French. As the Burkes were land-lords they voted for French and any of their tenants who did not vote for him were evicted. Six families did not vote for Nolan and they were evicted.
