Description
A woollen garment and a lock of human hair (Armagh Museum 15-60) described in a note addressed to Miss Steele Nicholson of Falmore House as a lock of mans hair that was found in the bog and a piece of his coat and from Gleniely Co Derry. There is no such townland as Gleniely and Mr D R M Wetherup, who kindly provides this information, suggests that this may have been the Gleneely Valley.
