Some added information to Lillians note. Looks like you can still book rooms at the castle. The web site is http://www.tourismresources.ie/cht/ffrench1.html There is lots of information on the web etc. Its under 'ffrench' ; lots of info in goggle etc. Its one of the spellings the Irish french's used during some rough times in Ireland. I do not believe its owned by the French family anymore. The Athy Family has done quite a lot of research on this branch of the French family. Some chance I have a tie but no solid proof yet. Why your interest?
