This is written on the Down Survey Athrody. “Teige O’Roddy, the lineal descendant of the coarbs of Fenagh, who has written several marginal notes in the original M.S.S. and who had in his possession the largest collection of books of Brehon Laws then to be found in Ireland, died full of years in 1705. He was an excellent Latin, Greek, and Hebrew scholar and a constant correspondent of O’Flaherty, author of Ogygia. He lived at a place, called Crossfield in his time, but that name is now forgotten.” “The tree called Crann-na-Croise, which stood near his house, was cut down about 60 years ago; it stood about 100 yards from the present road, leading from Fenagh to Mohill, near the end of the little lake of Fenagh.” The townland, on which Teige lived and which he and his correspondents styled Crossfield, is now called Aroddy.” (O’Donovan, Letters on Leitrim).
