Book Description
Excerpt from The Place-Names of Decies Many - perhaps the majority - of townland and parish names possess an antiquity far greater than the present shape of the name would suggest. With a form as of yesterday the name has not unfrequently behind it the hoary antiquity of several centuries. From their occurrence in early deeds and charters we know that many townland and nearly all parish names go back to the Invasion, and undoubtedly a large proportion of these to a period consider ably more remote. Sub-denominations - i.e. Names of townland sub-divisions, roads, wells, fields &c. - are generally less ancient, but even of these a certain proportion is of great age. In hundreds of instances what are now merely townland sub-divisions were formerly independent townlands, and similarly there are townland names which formerly designated not merely the present townland but a district or manor embracing several plowlands.

Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
