“Nails were made in Timoleague by William Allman, father of George Allman who taught in Courtmacsherry school.”
Nails were made in Timoleague by William Allman, father of George Allman who taught in Courtmacsherry school. He made them of wrought iron (pronounced rod-iron). He made all sorts of nails - for boots, boats, carpenters, machines. He used a small anvil with a hole in it and used to work very quickly. This is over 60 years ago. T. Holland says they bought nails as 4d 6d or 8d lengths.(no title)
