Kildaree
Kildaree () is a small townland located on the R327 regional road approximately 2.8 miles/4.4 km outside the small village of Williamstown in northeast County Galway, Ireland. It is approximately  in area. Location
The townland is situated on the Galway/Roscommon border to the west and is 4.5 miles/7.3 km from the village of Cloonfad in County Roscommon. To the north, Kildaree is bordered by a turlough known as Coolcam Lough (listed as a special area of conservation). This is a temporary lake that dries up during the warmer summer months, a typical feature of counties Galway, Mayo, Roscommon and Clare in the West of Ireland. The townland is also home to four ringforts, Iron Age remnants of a by-gone era. Folklore and superstition have surrounded these ringforts for centuries and they are often referred to as fairy forts by older generations. Cemetery
The focal-point of the townland is the graveyard or cemetery from which the area gets its name. Originally, a church stood within the grounds of this graveyard but there is little evidence of its existence today. Some foundations remain but they are mostly hidden by growth and all that remains visible is a holy water font carved into a rock near what would once have been the entrance to the church. The water font is associated with a legend which suggests that two local kings once fought over ownership of the church lands. In the heat of the battle, they struck the water font several times with their swords, cutting a number of slices into the stone that are visible today. A more likely story is that this was a rejected piece of masonry from the construction of the church that was later recycled into a holy water font, and the markings are stonemason's toolmarks. Gore-Booth family
In the time of Landlord ownership, Kildaree was once part of a larger swath of land owned by the Gore-Booth family who lived in Lissadell House in County Sligo. Constance Gore-Booth is today better known as Constance Markievicz, a close friend of W.B. Yeats and an iconic female figure involved in the early struggle and politics of the founding of the state, the Republic of Ireland. Today, the area has a small population of just 28 people and has only 10 houses within its boundaries. References
