Always so impressed at Riobard's and Joan's  kindness to visitors over these many years!! I was so fortunate myself to meet you in person, discuss the pronunciation of "Caobach" and get to hear a mini-concert!  Keep well, O'Dwyers!Jody Boyd From: "beara-request@rootsweb.com" <beara-request@rootsweb.com> To: beara@rootsweb.com Sent: Thursday, October 8, 2015 3:00 AM Subject: BEARA Digest, Vol 10, Issue 92 Today's Topics:   1.

Programme; plus visitors from Butte,     Montana. To: "beara@rootsweb.com" <Beara@rootsweb.com> Message-ID:     <CALXe21cs+YrB+xO_rO-mzdA+YJZy1CZfw0mTsMeetCZeecuiBQ@mail.gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 This evening I was going through the Village of Eyeries, when I met 6 lovely people.  I greeted them, as all good and friendly Beara people do to visitors, and it turned out that they were from Butte. Montana, and that they were looking for a fellow by the name of Riobard O'Dwyer, who, it was said, was supposed to know everything that a person should know about Beara ancestry. When they found out that the person they had heard about was standing there by their side, they were delighted that I could tell them where O'Shea's was. Unfortunately, it turned out that Mary had gone to Castletownbere, but, anyhow, I invited them down to my house, and made them feel at home. We talked about Fr. Sars & his sister Vernie , whose father, Sean "Irish" O'Sullivan had emigrated to Butte from Inisfernard Island, just across from us outside Kilcatherine Point, Eyeries Parish. Of course, the "Yank" came into our conversation. And I told them about the night we were in  John " the Yank's" apartment in Butte with Tom Mulcahy and the "Yank". John, who must have been around 90 at the time, was playing his single-row button accordeon, and I was playing my own accordeon to join in. "Saint Joan" my wife, was there as well. [Joan was aptly named as such by some American friends for having the patience to put up with me !! }. We conversed about the copper miners who came from Beara to Butte, and about the people we met in Butte (who have a special place in my heart still). To make the Butte visitors so welcome, as they deserved to be, I took out my faithful accordeon and played for them some Irish traditional music, as well as a tape I had made at home on the kitched sideboard, playing the organ and singing with it one of my favourite songs: "Oh Danny Boy". The delighted Butte visitors later met Mary after they had returned from the Allihies Copper Mine Museum. Later this evening., on Irish T.V., there was a programme on The Allihies Mines, and also on the famour Hag of Beara. Among the lectures on the programme were Tadhg O'Sullivan of the Allihies Museum, and Ann (nee Mac Nally of Garnish), the Principal teacher of Castletownbere Primary School. All in all, it was an eventful evening. Riobard. ------------------------------ Message: 3 Date: Wed, 7 Oct 2015 17:11:05 -0400 From: TLKids65ll@aol.com Subject: Re: [BEARA] Irish T.V.
