The Mc Kiernans have been on a boat in Shannonbridge for the past few days doing a bit of fishing and taking it easy.
Last night Carmel told me that her mother once worked in Shannonbidge in Killeens. Her mother was Kathleen Monaghan.
After a time in Shannonbridge Kathleen left to work in Larrasy's in Clara where she met her husband. He turned out
to be a publican and their pub was just outside Ballycumber on the road to Clara.
Kathleen died in 1983 aged 63 years. May she rest in peace.

Two Clondelara neghbours have died this week. Last evening Pat Duffy was telling us that the translation for
Clondelara was Clon = meadow, de, da = two, lara = mares. So ask for The Meadow of The Two Hares next time around.
