Place & story

Three residents

Clonagh had three inhabitants in 1911, one male and two female, living in a single occupied house. The comparative columns record one inhabitant in 1891 and five in 1901, with one house at each census. The return places Clonagh in Saint Mary’s parish, Brawny barony and Moydrum electoral division, within Athlone Union. These figures describe the small townland itself, rather than the wider Moydrum district. [2]
