Old Irish Customs:
The website duchas.ie has a treasure trove of Irish customs from times past. There are also many other sources on the ways of old:
The people used to have a great many customs long ago, on Mayday. They used not put down a fire until they would see smoke out of another one’s chimney and they would not put out the ashes on that day either. Another custom they used to have on Mayday also, is that they would not give out milk to anyone. The people have not any of those customs now.
