Name	Description
Ffolliott	The ffolliott family held lands in the parish of Aghanagh, barony of Tirerrill, County Sligo since the early 18th century. At the time of Griffith's Valuation John Ffolliott was one of the principal lessors in the parish. In the 1870s John Ffolliott had over 4000 acres in county Sligo as well as over 1400 in Leitrim and 1700 in Donegal. In 1906 Agnes Ffolliott owned over 600 acres of untenanted land in the barony of Tirerrill. Agnes was one of the five daughters of John Ffolliott. Mary and Margaret eventually inherited the estate. They sold it in the 1920s and went to live in England. Burke traces the ancestry of this family to Francis ffolliott, descended from John ffolliott of Ballyshannon. Roulston note that some of the Ballyshannon estate was purchased by William Conolly in 1718.
