Talk:Cootehill

Just a few comments on the History section

We have Major General Eric Dorman-Smith, "was the inspiration for Ernest Hemingway's "Colonel Cantwell". however on Ernest Hemingway's page it says "a war-weary Colonel Cantwell (based on his friend, then Colonel Charles Lanham)" so this needs to be resolved... where they both the inspiration?
Don't think this should be included: "Other famous personalities connected with Cootehill are Ceancomhairle Rory O'Hanlon and his son Ardal O'Hanlon, one of Ireland's premier comedians." Rory O'Hanlon is from Carrickmacross, and although he respresents cavan-monaghan I don't believe this is a strong enough reason for inclusion in the cootehill history section. Please prove otherwise!?
"Famous" is a word thats a bit overused on the page and perhaps could be improved with some substitutions e.g. The Cootes of Cootehill have been famous throughout the ages... Here I would think also "thoughout the ages" could be considered a longer period than the existance of cootehill.

Any other suggestions? Finnmccools 08:18, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Irish-language place name

Kilsherdany/Killersherdiny/Kildrumsherdan

Should Kilsherdany/Killersherdiny/Kildrumsherdan have its own article or be covered here? "2 ½ miles (S. W.) from Cootehill, on the road to Cavan; containing 6997 inhabitants" per A Topographical Dictionary of Ireland, 1837 version by here. http://www.libraryireland.com/topog/K/Killersherdiny-Tullaghgarvey-Cavan.php

Another reference I find mentioned is: Quinn, Rev. John, ed. Kilsherdany: Its History and People. Cavan, Ireland: Kilsherdany Parish Council, 1977. Jodi.a.schneider (talk) 13:52, 6 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
