Notes: 

The Mcgraths lived in Skeaghanore (where the Tree Company is now) Liam emigrated and died in Australia but his ashes were interred in Stouke. He was a poet and wrote a beautiful poem called "The Three Bells" when there were three churches in Ballydehob. I have lots of his poems. - Theresa Hickey (Skeaghanore)
