  • 1. Major Samuel Perry, Formerly of Moycullen House, Had a Sister Who
    Moycullen Local History Quiz Number Thirteen– Answers We hope you enjoyed this quiz. 1. Major Samuel Perry, formerly of Moycullen House, had a sister who was the first woman in Europe to do what? Answer: In 1906, from Queen’s College Galway (now NUIG), Alice Jacqueline Perry (1885-1969) became the first woman in Europe to graduate with a degree in Engineering (first class honours degree in Civil Engineering). Following her father James’ death the same year, she succeeded him temporarily as County Surveyor for Galway County Council - a post he had held since before her birth. Alice was an unsuccessful candidate when the permanent appointment was made. She still remains the only woman to have served as a County Surveyor (County Engineer) in Ireland. She died in Boston, USA, where she had been working within the Christian Science movement as a poetry editor and practitioner. In 2017 NUIG named their Engineering building in her honour. (Major Samuel Perry [1879-1945] was the only brother of Alice and her four sisters, Molly, Nettie, Agnes and Martha) 2. Where in Moycullen would you find Hangman’s Hill? Answer: The hill just behind Tullokyne school, along the esker road, is known as Cnoch an Crocadóir or Hangman’s Hill or also as Cnochán an Chrochta, the Hill of the Hanging. Local lore refers to a soldier being hung on the site. 3. David Davies OBE, retired BBC TV host and former Executive Director of the English Football Association (FA) had a Moycullen born mother, what was her name? Answer: Margaret (Madge) Morrison (1913-1999), born on the Kylebroughlan corner of the village crossroads.
