- 3471798Near our place in Munfin, are the ruins of a house which belonged to the family of Mullroney.
During the troubled time of 1798 a battle was fought in Bunclody on a certain fair day there.
An old man and his daughter who lived in this house were about five miles from the town
The man went to transact some business in the fair and he got shot.
His daughter wondering what delayed him, went to the town looking for him.
She also got shot by a stray bullet on the Ryland road.
They were the last of the Mullruneys.Seumas De Lasaig (14)

- In a field not far from our house two boys by the name of Redmond were working one day.
In the evening they spied some yoemen coming towards them. They started to run and the Yoes chased them to Ballycarney. One escaped, but the other was caught and they shot him on the Bridge at Ballycarney.Eibhlis Ni Bholghuidhir- Collector
