  2. How Reaske Got Its Name

    Share Share Post
    Long ago the landlords owned the land. Lord Clement's had four farms owned now by, Frank George Fannin, John William Fannin, Billy Fannin and Mick Conaty.
    The land was always called Killymullen, but since the landlords owned the land it is called "Reaske" It is only a nick-name for those four farms.
