              Set of index cards describing some of the natural physical features of the townland of Glionnán/Gleannán [Glennaun]. Anecdotal information from the Annála Beaga, and reference to Ferdinando Follin [Feargananim Folan], the landowner in 1641, later disposed to Sir Thomas Meredith. By the time of the sale of the Martin Estate in 1849, the land was used by tenants for putting cattle out to pasture. Features described include Tamhnach na gCoileach, Cnocán an Bhodaigh, Loch Fhada Ghlionnáin [Glennaun Lodge on the OS maps], and Aill Mhór Ghlionnáin. Some of the information Tim Robinson found for Glennán was in a letter by Eoin Ó'Néill. Seán Ó'Ceoinín is also a local source of information.

              Part of Personal

              Set of index cards describing historical and physical features of Cashel [An Caiseal], as well as anecdotes about some of the local businesses. A note on the first card notes that Cashel is not part of the Gaeltacht area in Connemara. Descriptions are included of the Roman Catholic Church of St. James, the Zetland Hotel, Cashel House, Muing na Fola, Aill na gCapall, O'Loghlen's Pier, Mass Rock, Loch Gleann Cromáin, Loch Tan, Caiseal Árd, Cnoc na Mantróg, Cashel Fort, Tobar Chonaill, Glaise Feadha, Cnoc an Chaisil, and Meall an tSaighdiúra. Various literary and personal sources are credited with providing information. Those named include Willie O'Malley of Ballinafad and M. Canavan. Robinson has added information in as he discovered it, with multiple cards about Cashel House, the Zetland, and St. James' church spread out.
