Hello to all our members and friends.
We have been allocated a second person under the Community Employment project. We would love if another person would join us in Dunmanway Historical Association. Do you have an interest in Local History or Family History or research? This would also interest a person who was interested in Data Bases, communication, IT, Social Media or just meet and greet our many visitors we are expecting the summer.

A wonderful Spring morning talking history with the pupils of 3rd & 4th classes at Ballinacarriga National School, thank you for having me chat to you all about Dunmanway’s Famine History, Ballinacarriga Castle and Winnie the Pooh’s links to Dunmanway- the pupils are looking forward to recording the podcast in a few weeks where they will be part of the voices of the Time Travellers Guide to Dunmanway.
Had to stop to take a picture of Ballinacarriga’s impressive tower house -medieval seat of the Hurleys
