Connemara (Cunnemara is a variant spelling) is the most western district of County Galway. The vast estate (196,540 acres) of Thomas Barnewell Martin was the largest in the district. After the famine it was bankrupt and put up for sale by mortagagees, the London Law Life Insurance Society. Thomas Colville Scott was sent to survey the property in 1853. This is his journal.
