    person was dead when the funeral used be going they used to leave the coffin on a flat stone which was at the cross, and they used to (lea) pray over the dead person.
    Long ago there were many other houses in this district but the people did not reside in them always, and then they fell. Long ago large numbers of people used to go to America. There are more thatched houses in it then slated houses. The most common name is McNamara. There was a song composed about the pump of Crusheen.
