Dear Ann and Pat, and other IrelandXO'ers!

You very kindly replied to my posting last November, and I'm finally going to visit Tiernascragh this coming weekend. I know that this is short notice, but is there a possibility of meeting one of you on Saturday, around 12.30-13.30? I will be en route to Clifden with a friend, and plan to detour to see the place where my grandfather's family lived around 1901. The townland is Longford.

Best wishes,

Audrey Mac Cready

  • Dear Pat,

    Thanks so much for meeting Chantal and me on 21 September. It was great to see the place where my great-grandfather worked, even if his stay in Tiranascragh wasn't lifelong. I'm very grateful to you for checking the School Rolls, too. The Hinch children's absence from the 2 Catholic schools is as interesting as their presence would have been!

    Please thank Nigel Stoddard for me, for inviting us into his home. That was a privilege, and that kitchen gallery is superb!

    I attach a photo of my grandfather, Henry Hinch, as promised. I told my mother about my visit to you, and she is delighted that you are interested in having the photo. I think it was taken outside the Gresham Hotel on O'Conell St., Dublin. I also have a photo of his dad, John, which I got from a distant cousin. I'll check with him if it's ok to send it to you, too.

    Hope all is well in Tiranascragh!

    regards,

    Audrey

  • Hi Pat,

    Here is the photo of John Hinch, which I got from my 2nd cousin, Michael Hinch.

    Mike Feerick has asked me to write a short article for the IrelandXO newsletter, which I will do. Your name will be in lights!

    best wishes,

    Audrey
