    Folklore.
    Long ago it is said that Lough Graney was only a well.
    One night a girl went for water to the well and her name was Graney and she fell into it and she was drowned and the well sprung up and that is how it got its name .She was afterwards found at Derry-Graney and burried at Tuam -Graney.
