    1. [IGW] McGlinchey Autobiography
    2. Jean Rice
    3. For your information -- I note that there is a new autobiography (2001) out by Charles McGlinchey, "The Last Of The Name," with an introduction by Brian Friel and comments by Seamus Heaney. Book is about a rural Irish weaver with an astonishing memory and the gift of gab. "McGlinchey regales us with a wealth of stories from his own time and from the days of his father and grandfather," per review. I don't know which Irish counties it pertains to but probably good reading for anyone interested in learning more about Ireland through first-hand accounts. Jean
