	Scotch-Irish
		Greencastle was founded in 1782 by John Allison and was situated in the southern portion of Cumberland County.
		If Greencastle was named for a place in the north of Ireland, there is no doubt the gently rolling landscape of this area reminded them of their homes in Ireland.
		Although the house Greencastle was not actually a castle it was quite large in comparison to the cottages dotted about it, and according to Archie Reid, to the people who lived in its proximity it probably seemed like a castle.

	The Northwest - County Donegal - Traveling Around Ireland with Patricia Tunison Preston
		Donegal is a county of contrasts — from the wide expanses of award-winning beaches like Rossnowlagh and Bundoran to the narrow winding roads leading into the rock-strewn "Gaeltacht" or Gaelic-speaking areas.
		In addition, County Donegal presents a diverse collection of cliffs and mountains, resorts and fishing ports, old abbeys and pilgrim sites, crafts centers and thatched cottages.
		Each cottage represents a different era and way of life — 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries, and is furnished with the tools, implements, and utensils appropriate to that period.

		It is located a few miles from Moville and is about 20 miles from Derry.
