- Rakeelan abstract "Rakeelan is a townland in the Parish of Tomregan, Barony of Tullyhaw, County Cavan, Ireland. The townland name is an anglicisation of the Gaelic placename “Rath Caolain” which means ‘Keelan’s Fort’. The oldest surviving mention of the name is in the 1609 Ulster Plantation map where it is spelled ‘Rakellan’. It is bounded on the north by Gortawee townland, on the east by Annagh townland, on the south by Doon townland and on the west by Mucklagh townland. Its chief geographical features are the Shannon-Erne Waterway which flows north along its eastern boundary and a foothill of Slieve Rushen mountain reaching to 228 feet (69 m) above sea-level. Rakeelan is traversed by the Border Road and Mucklagh lane.The townland covers 89 statute acres, including 1-acre (4,000 m2) of water. It formed part of the Manor of Calva which was granted to Walter Talbot in 1610 as part of the Plantation of Ulster. The Hearth Money Rolls of 1664 list the occupiers of Rakeelan as Brian O’Tumony and Margaret MyGwire.
