Hi Nan, Thank you for this. There is still at least one Doran, a Patrick, living in Ballyplunt, a retired farmer. There are a number of other Doran families, all related, living close by in Ballylucas. Joseph Fitzpatrick lived in the small clachan of Scollockstown (Scollogstown on the maps) which is in Rathmullan Upper townland. He had a son who was known as "Jimmie Joe" who was very friendly with my father. They were all farmers. The Dorans, John, Paddy and Michael, Jimmie Joe Fitzpatrick, Teddy Sharvin and my father, John, all worked together for many years helping each other out with their farmwork. Only Paddy and Michael Doran remain of that group. Regards, Billy.
