KILRUSH & DISTRICT HISTORICAL SOCIETY Lecture: The Murder of the Colleen Bawn by Tom Donovan





You're invited!









THREE MEN FROM CLARE.. A book of their memories by Jackie Elger & Patricia Sheehan









All are welcome to attend the book launch of 'Three Men from Clare,' an oral history book produced by Jackie Elger & Patricia Sheehan.
Special guests on the day will be George Casey (aged 94) and Morgie O'Connell (aged 93). Guest speaker will be the oral historian Dr. Tomás Mac Conmara.

About the book:
Over a period of seven years Jackie and Patricia recorded George Casey, Tom Cusack (RIP 2015) and Morgie O’Connell.
This is a book of the transcriptions of their recordings. The men recall their schooldays, farm work, dancing, socialising, sport,
local people and much more. The book is not only the story of their own lives, but also gives the history of a community and how
it has evolved and changed over the past century. It encompasses the villages of Kildysart, Cranny, Coolmeen, Ballynacally, Labasheeda and beyond.

The book will also be available from 26 November at The Ennis Bookshop, Kildysart Post Office, Eason in Shannon and online through the Facebook page, Cat Beag Books
