A house is marked at Cam on the Strafford map of c. 1636 (Simington 1949, Athlone (176)). It was not encountered in the field, unless it is (RO048-194----). Cam and the unknown Caher, amounting to 597 acres, were owned by the Bishop of Elphin, but most of this land was rented by Donnell O Dollan, who was probably related to James Dolan of Cloghan castle (RO044-055----). The bishop retained the land in the 1660s (ibid. 100).

The map shows the centre of the officially named townland area, not the monument. The government record does not identify the exact monument point.
