KILBARRON TERRYGLASS HISTORICAL SOCIETY
As part of the 1916 centenary the Kilbarron Terryglass Historical Society will be laying a wreath at the Remembrance Tree in the little wood walk after 10am mass in Terryglass on Easter Sunday morning. All welcome to come along and attend. The Society would also sincerely like to thank all those who made the launch of our first Historical Journal such a success on St. Patrick’s Day. We also thank all those who assisted and contributed to the exhibition on the life of Patrick Hough from Slevoir. The Historical Society sincerely thanks John Flannery of the Ormond Historical Society who delivered a very informative lecture on the 1916 Rising to a full house in Ballinderry on Friday 18th March. Special thanks goes to Julia Warren who told everyone about her great grandfather Michael Staines who was quartermaster General in the GPO on Easter Monday.
