Kate's Brother Martin was my Gt Gt Grandfather. I have the descendents from there, fairly extensively. Yes it is the story of Poor Kate chased over the Falls in Ennistymon by Michael in a drunken state. They are just slabs of stone and a kid could play on them - EXCEPT they go into to a real rush after rainfall. I have a few great stories. The Pub is almost certainly James Griffin's - the original being Kate's Brother - still there now and in the control of Matthew. Patsy had a sister Mary who died in Nickerson Kansas, but her daughter came home and married Kennealy and her Grandson Myles Staunton became and Irish Member of Parliament (TD). I believe Michael Carrigg married "the help" Mary McGuire and reformed himself and together they made good parents to his 7 and their 5 children. email me on kpm2@bigfoot.com Kevin Murphy Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
