    There is another below in Acres mountain,but it is not there now.There is a green square near a heathery place an odd bush and long pointed stones which they had for headstones. No one ever brought those stones for they thought it would not be right.
    There was another coill below in Cahir hill on Ó Haras farm.He lived below where O'Dwyers are living now.he was a Pprotestant ,and when he died he was buried there.
    There was another in Ó Donnels farm in Corachoill and all the children of that parish are buried there and that is why it got the name Corachoill.
