In the early 70s and most the 80s the extensive quarries nearby were worked mostly by Irishmen and up above the quarries a small community was established and known as "Irishtown" but officially named Woodlawn. Most of those employed at the quarries were members of the Catholic church and when death came many of them were buried on the adjacent hillside. Close by were the homes and clear, in short distance, loomed the tall steeple of their church. http://www.celticcousins.net/irishiniowa/woodlawn.htm Charles Flynn Takes a Trip Back to County Cork, Ireland - 1904 http://www.celticcousins.net/irishiniowa/flynntrip.htm Numerous Obits and Bios of persons born in Ireland.
