They all lived  close to Carrigeencor Lake in Rockmount House.
..........
So there was a small school in Carrigeencor where all the children went to i hope to find some pictures .......

From Google Streetview, this is the old school building (on the left) east of Carrigeencor Lough.

Hello North Gower

Just visited Dromahair looking for Armstrong family. Always looking for Eccles too.  Anything new with Adam Armstrong family?
