Here's two pictures I have of Boarmans hill area, the first is looking onto Boarmans hill and the second looking away from it.
There are only about six houses in the area of Boarmans hill now, if even that, just down the road though there is the remains of an abandoned village (well a cluster of about five houses) which were left during the mid 19th century.
Next time I'm in that direction I photograph them.

(p.s. sorry about the telephone wire in the second)

Sharon,
These photos are very moving to me. Thankyou. Please send more when you can. You might even find a grave around the cottages.
Cheers
Flemmo

sharon,
Thanks so much. I love your work. I've been telling my family all about you.
The Boarmanshill photos remind me of an area in the foothills of our Snowy Mountains where i spent much of my youth.
I've been talking to Ljda too. I think we are all related.
Keep in touch.

Have you both seen this http://www.connorsgenealogy.com/LIM/cappamore.htm
Boarmans Hills is on the boarder with Cappamore and Murroe this is the Tithe Applotment, Cappamore  Parish for 1826, there are a few Flemings there.

Hi Flemmo,
I'm on the other side of the world completely, I'm up here in Limerick still.
I'm not connected with the Flemming families, my parents moved to the area they lived in from England, but I'm glad to have been of help.
I started a Limerick website, although it is mostly out your region (mainly Limerick city) although I have included in it the story of a doctor from Murroe/Cappamore.

There is a whole debate and poll on whether uncle Freddy should stay or go here http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,130933.0.html

Regards

Sharon
