- IIThe great famine of 1846-47 affected this district as well as the many other places in Ireland. This district was twice as thickly populated at that time as it is now. The houses were built in blocks of four and five houses and where these houses stood at that time one house only is there now. The stones of these houses are now built up as fences.The failure of the potato crop was the chief cause of the famine. Blight appeared in Ireland for the first time about 23rd June, 1846.The stalk of the potato withered away and then the potatoes ceased to grow. The greater part of them decayed in the ground.Some of the people dug the potatoes no matter how small they were, and kept them for seed. When the spring came, they set them and had a small crop the next year, but it was only very few who did so.When a great many people had died of starvation, the Government relief reached the district.
