- Long ago a bog moved from near the village of Knocknagree. The route it took was towards the Lakes of Killarney. In the bog there lived a family but the name of Donellys. The eldest daughter went the night before the bog moved, to her friend's house, so she escaped, but the rest of the family were drowned in the Lakes. It is said that the man of the house was up and ready for the fair that was to be in Knocknagree. Years after in the same place the daughter that escaped built a house and got married and lives there at present.
