1908 - Division of Gortatleva & Lydican, Lord Clanmorris

The grass lands of Lord Clanmorris, at Claregalway, have been divided amongst the small tenants on the property, and from accounts to hand, it appears they have been generously dealt with. Adjoining the Lydican property are seven or eight tenants - Thomas McDonagh, John Qualter, Pat Stephens, Thomas Walsh, John Carr, Bartly Walsh, and Pat Murphy, who have small holdings. Adjoining the holdings of these tenants, there lies 48 acres of Gortacleva from which they and their ancestors were evicted, there are also 28 acres of the townland of Lydican.
