Cormick McEntee & Ann Connolly of the townland of Mullantlavan  baptised 3 sons in the RC parish of Magheracloone, Co. Monaghan 

Patrick McEntee on 8-Apr-1850

Thomas McEntee in 1852 and

Matthew in 1855.

 

The family is misrecorded as McEnteer in the1832 Tithe Applotment records (see Owen McEntee).

 

Later, in Griffith's Valuation, this family is recorded as McAtee – where Cormack McAtee is recorded at farm #8  (Michael McAtee & wife Mary Conolly live nearby at farm #6 and invited Cormack to godparent their first child in 1837).

 

Two McEntee households endured here in the 1901 Census of "Mullanttovan" to include Cormack's son Matthew McEntee & Family. 

 

Cormack survived his wife Ann (who died of cancer, age 55, in 1876). He died at home, age 82, in the presence of his son Matthew.

One of the topics schoolchildren were asked to write about were "Travelling Folk" or An Lucht Siúil. </p> <p>Here is a selection of what "settled" children wrote about travelers in the late 1930s.</p>
