Kathleen T has left the building / Newry Man Lost
Purely by chance I discoverd Kathleen T’s house on my way home from covering a turf cutting competition in Connemara.
While I was driving down the road home I had to pull over to take a phone call and there it was frozen in time, quietly sitting a few meters back of the tarmac. From the outside it was plain to see that no one had lived here in many a year and the family that once resided within had long since vanshed. I have started my research in to the history of the house and the generations that lived and died within.
What I do know from looking at the records and photo albums that littered the dwelling is that the family had a proud military tradition with some of the documents dating back to the mid 1800s.
