I haven't a clue what you are looking for. Why the mention of Drumkeeran which is miles away at top of Lough Allen? Cloone is way over on Longford border. The 'Drums' in Cloone Parish are;

Droim ar Céin/​Drumerkeane, Droim Bada/​Drumbad, Droim Binnis/​Drumbinnis, Droim Bóthair/​Drumboher
Droim Caolmhaí/​Drumkeilvy, Droim Connaidh/​Drumconny, Droim Dearcan/​Drumdarkan
Droim Dhoirn/​Drumadorn, Droim Dhonnaigh/​Drumgunny. Droim Gabhla/​Drumgowla
Droim Gamhnach/​Drumgownagh, Droim Giolra/​Drumgilra, Droim Gráinne/​Drumgrania
Droim Leagach/​Drumlaggagh, An Droim Mín/​Drummeen, An Droim Mór/​Dromore
Droim Seanbhó Theas/​Drumshanbo South, Droim Seanbhó Thuaidh/​Drumshanbo North
Droim Shalach/​Drumhallagh, Droim Theas/​Drumhass. Droim Thoirc/​Drumhirk
Droim Thorcáin/​Drumharkan Glebe, Droimne/​Drumna, An Dromainn Bhán/​Drummanbane

Not a Drumcaskin to be found in whole county!

Drumcauskeen (various spellings) was an old townland which disappeared (officially) in the 1830s when the Ornance Survey drew up the new map of Ireland.  It became part of Killyveha townland of Cloone parish.  Killyveha is the southermost townland of Cloone parish.

The townland was the standard method of land division in Ireland as it still is today.

Ann was one of three daughters recorded to John and Catherine.
