A Story
“Long ago there was a castle in Ballyluskey and in it lived the Maher family.”
Long ago there was a castle in Ballyluskey and in it lived the Maher family. The Mahers were great soldiers. One of them a man called Tadgh Maher was killed at the battle of Aughrim. His horse came home and brought Tadgh, whose head had been cut off, back to his native Drangan. He was buried in the old church yard in Drangan.- Collector
