Just south of Mohill in County Leitrim is a body of water called Lough Rynn (Rinn). It is connected to the Shannon by the Rinn river. Does anybody know the history of this area or any ideas on how to find out the local history. Thanks Mark Wrinn

Follow-up: Rinn/Rin/Rynn/Ring means a point of anything such as a point of land. There are thousands of locations in Ireland with Rinn in it. In Roscommon on Lough Ree is a peninsul called Rinnduin in The Annals of the Kingdom. There is also an island in the Lough call Rinanny. In Clare there is Rineanna which the Annals call Rinn-eanaigh, the point of the marsh. Ringcurran is a peninsula near Kinsale and nearby are the ruins of castle Ringrone. I could go on but I can help narrow your "Rinn" if you can at least identify the county. Pete Hanley phanley@arnoldcom.com

My mother is from Mohill, and I go there on my
holidays. I actually have a booklet at home about
Lough Rynn at home, so if you want to send me a
postal address, I will photocopy it and send it
to you.
Yours,
