  2. The Local Landlord

    Share Share Post
    The Landlord of Drumfin was Chritopher Guy Orme of Owenmore Crossmolina Co. Mayo. He was looked upon as a Good Landlord. The land was sold to the land Commission about thirty years ago and in thirty years it should be free to its present owners.
    There have been no evictions or plantings carried out in the district.
    People resented their collection, of the Tithes.
