   The name of my townland is Conaghy which means "the Field of the Hounds." It is in the parish of Killeevan in the barony of Dartrey. There are twelve families in the townland. There are thirteen houses, seven are thatched and six slated. The chief name is Murray, Brady and Toal.

   There are two rivers that run through Conaghy, the Finn and the Anney. The Finn is a broad and long river. On the Finn there are two bridges.

   There is a song made about the "Hounds of Conaghy." The nearest lough to Conaghy is Rooskey Lough. There is a very large fort situated beside MacMahon's castle. It is called the fort of Cu which means the fort of the Hounds.

   There are a number of old ruins in Conaghy, McMahons castle and the Giant's Grave. The Canal runs through Conaghy.
