Kilbaha:

Marcus Keane, landlords agent became infamous for brutal evictions.
A record from the time can be seen here. An interesting insight into the 
man can be got from his book ‘The towers and temples of ancient 
Ireland; their origin and history discussed from a new point of 
view (1867)’ which he wrote during the 1860’s in the ‘Reading Room’
tower building in Kilbaha. The book is out of copyright and available to 
download free here.
