Milford  County Cork

 

In 1837, Samuel Lewis's Topographical Dictionary of Ireland described Milford like this:

MILLFORD, a village, in the parish of KILBOLANE, barony of ORRERY and KILMORE, county of CORK, and province of MUNSTER, 5 ½ miles (S. W.) from Charleville; containing 25 houses and 181 inhabitants. The river Deel, which runs through the village, abounds with trout and pike. There is a patent for four fairs, but they are not now held. Here is the R. C. chapel for this part of the district of Freemount; also a national school. In the vicinity are several seats, noticed under the head of Kilbolane.
