Denis Downey has an entry in the Griffiths Valuation for Kilcatherine. He is shown as being a tenant in Gortgariff, reference 12a where he is assessed for approximately 1 acre of land, with a rental value of seven shillings (£0.35p) and buildings with a rental value of five shillings (£.0.25p).
Below are two maps. The first is a historic map, with the original Griffiths information. Towards the top of the map, approximately in the centre, 12a can be seen, where Denis Downey’s house and land were located. The second shows the same image, overlaid on a modern map of the area. The third image has the farm location pinpointed on a current map, allowing zooming and panning.
