Dear Lex

In A Pauper Warren, his book on the famine in west Limerick, author Gerard
Curtin includes a list of needy families who lived in Loghill and Shanagolden
parishes in 1846, but couldn't be accounted for in the 1852 Griffith's
Valuation. The list includes 13 Enrights (but no Cornelius or Con) and 10
Madigans. Don't know whether the names would be of use to you, but for what
they're worth, here they are. Following are heads of households (individual
members aren't listed), occupations, the number in the household and the
townlands in which they lived in 1846:
