Where is the location of the Carlow Old Graves Cemetery? -----Original Message----- From: irl-carlow-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:irl-carlow-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Jj Woods Sent: Thursday, May 23, 2013 11:38 AM To: irl-carlow@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [IRL-CARLOW] Clowry+Bowels I don't know if there are any members of that Ellis family still living in Carlow. I know there was an Ellis family living in JKL Avenue but I don't think they are related. I could be wrong. A number of your Ellis family were involved in the printing trade. I believe William may have moved to Carlow from Dublin to work as a compositor (now commonly called a typesetter) in the Nationalist and Leinster Times. His son, John, was the Works Manager in 'The Nationalist' for very many years. He was an absolute gentleman. Another son, Richard (Dick) also worked in 'The Nationalist' and Joseph was involved in the Insurance business. Dick was a bit of a poet as well and also a lovely man. John (or Johnny as he was known) had sons also involved in the printing business. The eldest, Johnny Jnr., was a journalist, starting in the Nationalist and ending up in the newsroom of RTE. I think he has family and they are probably in the Dublin area. William (or Billy as he was known) was also a compositor and for many years was in charge of the newspaper make-up. He was unmarried. A third son, Brendan, was also a compositor and in the late '60s he moved to Naas to work in the Leinster Leader. He died unexpectedly in 1993. He had three sons. I think a daughter of the original William was married to a man by the name of Harvey and their son, Harry, also worked in the Nationalist as a compositor. I believe the family lived in Charlotte Street near the junction with Brown Street. I think Harry had siblings but I do no know for certain. Sometime in the '60s Harry's wife inherited a hotel in Gardiner Street, Dublin and Harry and family moved up there to manage the business. I believe they then sold that and moved to somewhere close to the Kilkenny/Carlow border to run a guesthouse. I think he had two children. I hope this adds something you your knowledge. J. J.

What an informative and historically interesting article. I liked the story about Tottie Foley.
