Floody Families in Anny, Parish of Aughnamullen, Co. Monaghan, Ireland
The image on the right is a fairly current GIS map from County Monaghan, http://193.178.1.178/Monaghan%5FgPlan/. The circle in the center is an ancient cemetery, perhaps where some of the area families are buried - unrecorded. To the right at about 2 o'clock along a line of trees is a small white building with a red roof. That was the Floody 'home place'.
