I know a story of families living peacefully in northern Ireland who were dragged kicking and screaming from their houses and then made to watch the whole street burn, set on fire by members of the PIRA, and that wasn't anywhere near 200 years ago. And that is recorded fact not just a story.
I don't tell stories, the bloke was from Killala ,the burning you described was usually the other way around, Bombay Street springs to mind.
