Many heroes were in this district long ago. The best known to all was Maurice Hourigan, who lived in the Parish of Ballingarry. He was one of the best walkers in Irish history. He toured mostly all Ireland and he always went by foot. He travelled from Ballingarry to Cork in almost one day and how he did it is a mystery to all, but it is an absolute fact.
Famous jumpers and runners also lived in Charleville, they were two brothers Leahys they won many prizes and championships in jumping and running.
