  		Seegronan Townland - 1859 - Detail of Lot 3 Detail from the 1859 map of Seegronan with lots and structures referenced in Griffith's Valuation of Tenements. Lot 3 stretched from Seegronan Road in the east to Meenamullan Road in the west. The structures on the lot (a house and barn) are about one quarter of the way in from the east.
  		Dolan Seegronan Homesteads - Lot 3 - 01 - Entrance Entrance to Lot #3 (as numbered in the 1859 Griffith's Valuation of Tenements for Seegronan Townland) from Seegronan Road. Occupied by William Dolan in 1859, then transferred to his nephew, John Dolan, who farmed this Lot until 1903. John J. Dolan (1884-1971) spent 4 years here as a teenager from 1898-1902.

  		Dolan Seegronan Homesteads - Lot 3 - 02 - Original House and Barn The original house is the structure on the right that now has an ell projecting out (the ell was added later, in the 20th century). It was originally two rooms downstairs and (probably, but no longer) a loft. The building to its left was the original barn. It is now a shed and tool area. Shown with Robert M. Simon standing in front of the original barn. Photograph by Marietta Dolan; historical information from current owner, Alice Lunney.

  		Dolan Seegronan Homesteads - Lot 3 - 05 - The Rock - 1 According to the recollection of John J. Dolan (1884-1971), there was a large rock in the driveway in front of the barn, and the lot was known locally as "Rock Farm." The current owner confirmed that what I am standing on is that large rock. Over the years, it was used to store turf for the winter, and the resulting organic matter accumulated and grass now covers the rock. Photograph by Marietta Dolan.
