1930s late - Mick and Mary Carrucan at Eltham26 viewsThis photo is set in the late 1930's or early 1940's. Mick Carrucan (b 1960) is front left and this photo is taken probably not long before he died around 1942. His wife Mary Carrucan (nee Sweeney) is left back. The lady in the front is her sister Ellen Sweeney who, being sick, came to live at Eltham in the late thirties or early forties. We think the other family are the Brasiers or Braziers who lived for a while in a cottage owned by one of our relatives at Research.

The Burren25 viewsThe Burren (Great Rock) is a plateau occupying a vast area of North Clare. It rises in the south from the foothills near Killanoboy and Kilfenora, is bounded in the east by the Gortaclare mountains and is contained in the west by the Atlantic Ocean. Its highest peak, Slieve Elva, overlooks Galway Bay and the Aran Islands. It is an area of scenic attractions - wild and lonely but picturesque - where the clear light, reflected from the stone-grey hills, seems to radiate an air of timelessness, made more realistic by the many pre-historic remains that dot the fields and the valleys beneath. The Burren is of particular interest to archeologists, botanists, speleologists, zoologists, ornithologists, etc.
