- In the townland of Adoon in the 19 th century there dwell a man named John Reynolds who made barrels. He was called "curley" because he had very dark curley hair. He made the barrels from dale and would bend them with hot water and he made the hoops from holy and briars or hoop iron. His son carries on the trade yet.
