Hi Mel My trip to Cullyhannah is to look at some estate maps that were found in a skip and are in a museum there. They relate to Skeriff Tichburn and possible adjacent townlands. My great grandfather Patrick Callan, after moving to England, acquired a property there in 1878. Previously it had been in the possession of the Sheridan's Patrick's mother's family. My Callan ancestors come from Drumgoose which is south of Loch Muckno, close to the border just off the Castleblayney to Dundalk road. I have some photos taken on previous trips. They show countryside rather than town being of Drumgoose and Skeriff Tichburn. They are however interesting. The house at Drumgoose is close on 200 years old and shows a superior house for a small farmer. The photos at Skeriff are less valuable partly due to the weather but also because the houses have been replaced. My next computer job is to set up a photo archive and will put the photos in which I can share - I do not share photos of living people without their consent.

Thanks Mel xxx In a message dated 02/03/2013 16:09:44 GMT Standard Time, teresacallan@btinternet.com writes: I'm looking for a bit of advice if anyone has it. I am planning a trip to Ireland in April or May and I am looking to stay self catering in Dublin and travel up to County Monaghan at least once. Whilst I am there I hope to cross over to Cullyhannah in County Armagh but I am dependant on public transport. Does anyone know if I will be able to get a taxi at Castleblayney or Carrickmacross and anyone any advice on taxi firms. Also can anyone recommend self catering accommodation in Dublin or in the Dublin Bay area.
