    There was a very heavy snowstorm in the year 1867. Some sheep were lost around here.
    There was a big windstorm in 1903 and a lot of out houses were blown down and the roofs of more out houses were blown away. A man from Camblin near Roscrea was drowned in the river Suir at Thurles fair.
    The horse ran away and ran into the rive and the man was in the car and was drowned.
