    3. Not sure why my post is duplicated several times sorry if my fault I have trouble with my eyes legally blind. I also apologies in advance for the large print that appears on my postings it's what I can see clearly. I seen http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyrone_House <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyrone_House>before that is where I got the information that the keeper of this house was John Donnelly. According to family tradition Fanny Donnelly was an heiress that ran away with either the Coachman or the Butler James Lunney. I'm wondering if there is somewhere pre-1833 that shows the servants or family members at this house? Thanks for the site to the libraries I'll do some researching there. I wish I could go there myself hope you have a great trip in June. Len

    3. This is from today IRISH TIMES Unmarked graves found in Dublin The unmarked graves of 40 children from the Bethany Home, a Protestant residential institution, have been discovered in Dublin. The graves contain the bodies of former residents of the institution which operated in Blackhall Place, Dublin, from 1921-34 and in Orwell Road, Rathgar, until it closed in 1972. It was a combined maternity home, children’s home and place of detention for women convicted of petty theft, prostitution, infanticide and birth concealment. Over 40 children were recorded as dying in a period when the home had 19 babies resident on average per month, according to Griffith College Dublin academic Niall Meehan. The unnamed children were then independently traced by Mr Meehan to Mount Jerome Cemetery, Harold’s Cross, Dublin, most of whom are in adjoining unmarked common graves. The infant residents were buried at the cemetary between 1935 and 1936 when Bethany Home Dublin was required to register child mortality under the Maternity Act of 1934.
