Lisserlough	Lisserlough was part of the King (Viscount Lorton) estate but was let on long leases to a number of different families, notably Powell, Baker and Laurence. McTernan notes that the present house was built by Viscount Lorton in the 1850s. It is still extant and has been restored while the adjacent out-offices have been converted into apartments.
Rathtermon	Taylor and Skinner indicate Rathtermon as a seat of the Fleming family in 1783. In 1837 Lewis records Rathtermon as the seat of J. Flanagan. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Rev. John Flanagan was leasing a property valued at £10 together with over 200 acres at Rathtermon, barony of Coolavin, to Phillip McDermott. Rathtermon is still the focus of a large farming enterprise.
Ballymore	Alex Popham was leasing a house valued at £17 to Andrew Irwin at the time of Griffith's Valuation. Writing in 1786 Wilson refers to Ballymore as the seat of Pooley Shuldham, who may have been connected with the Longford family of that name. In 1814 Ballymore was the seat of Edward Elwood. In 1837 Lewis recorded it as the seat of Rev. J. Elwood. It is described as " a mansion in the possession of the late Rev. Elwood's family" at the time of the first Ordnance Survey. A house is still extant at Ballymore.

Robert Elwood was leasing a house at Knockadoo from Viscount Lorton at the time of Griffith's Valuation. it was valued at £24. In the 1870s it is recorded as the address of Joseph Bennett Little. Earlier, at the time of the first Ordnance Survey it is described as "a fine mansion resided in by Owen Lloyd". A farm is still extant at the site.
