I don't know if this is of any use to you. My family have lived in Glencullen Lower, Co Mayo for a number of generations and in the late 1800s a Ruane family lived in a stone cottage in a field now owned by my family. There are still the remains of stone cottages in that field today. My Dad didnot know what happened to the Ruane family as this would have been in my great-grandmother's time. He assumed that the Ruane family had died out.
