    “After the famine the people round here..”

    Share Share Post
    After the Famine the people round here were dying so quickly that they hadn't time to bury them according as they died so they used to bring the coffins to a place called Moaneen Crinn between Breacna and Maddysrulla. Then some people would come together and they'd bring the coffins to the churchyard and bury them. Often there would be ten or twelve coffins lying there to be buried.
