    Mairtin Mac Con Iomaire (MM) John Clancy (JC) Jimmy Rock (JR)

    Edited Interview with John Clancy in Cathal Brugha Street (22/1 & 1112/2008) Mairtin Mac Con Iomaire (MM) John Clancy (JC) Jimmy Rock (JR) 1. MM: Where and when were you born? 2. JC: I was born in Dublin on the 3rd December 1952, in the Navan Road and I was adopted aged three by a family called the Bannons. The extraordinary thing about the Bannons, was that George was Church of Ireland and Connie his wife, Catherine, was Roman Catholic and when they got married it caused terrible consternation in the family, in fact her family wouldn't talk to them, it caused terrible friction in the family. Now I have to say he was an absolute gentleman. His career, he was a sergeant major in the British Army and he fought in the Second World War. He came back from the war and went to work in Maguire and Pattersons. He was a maintenance fitter by trade, very highly skilled. 3. MM: The match people, they were Quakers, weren't they? 4. JC: That's right, and when I went up to live in Barr na Coille, I was fostered with another chap called Charlie Warner, no Charlie, nobody knows where Charlie is now. The Bannons had one son Kenneth who would have been about seven years older than I; he would have been around ten at the time. There are several things I remember about the experience, it was my first time ever in a car, and it was my first time ever seeing dogs, they had greyhounds and collies.

    Edited Interview with Matt Dowling in CERT House Amiens Street (19/2/2004) Mairtin Mac Con Iomaire (MM) Matt Dowling (MD) 1. MM: When and where were you born? 2. MD: I was born in Inchicore. I was actually born in Crumlin, Stanaway Road in 1945. My Dad worked on CIE railway and moved to Inchicore when I was about six years of age as it was quite near where my Dad worked. 3. MM: So he worked in the works? 4. MD: Yeah, he worked there in the (Inchi core) works, alongside a lot of men but when I was about 14, I was supposed to go to James' Street (school). I was the oldest of a big family. There was seven sisters after me so there was no way I was going to James' Street for six years and money was short enough. You just knew yourself, it wasn't as if somebody ever told you. So I took the option of going to technical school, V.E.C., in Inchicore. Well, I certainly excelled there. I suppose because I love Irish, it helped me through all of my exams. You were given top marks in Irish and it pulled you through on your average score. 5. I remember one day, going home and father was working with this guy and his son happened to be a waiter in the Russell and he said to me 'There's a job going in that hotel, do you want to be a chef?' Well my uncle had been a chef in England, and was a chef and been in the British army and had come out and worked with Henley on Thames in the regatta there and he always had plenty of money, big cars, fast suits and every time he came home, we got money off him so, it certainly looked very promising to me.

  • Irish Collections at the Newberry

    Irish Collections at the Newberry

    1 IRISH COLLECTIONS AT THE NEWBERRY Introduction The Newberry holds several thousand items relating to Irish and Irish-American history and literature. There is an abundance of material on all key events, movements and individuals associated with Irish history from the seventeenth to the twentieth century, though the library’s particular strength is in the nineteenth century. Researchers with an interest in military and political history are particularly well catered for, as are those concerned with the Irish literary tradition. There is also a strong collection relating to Irish-America, particularly focused on the Chicago area, and the library has numerous resources which are invaluable to all those with an interest in genealogy. Scholars interested in Irish poetry, literature and drama will find a wealth of primary and secondary material. There are a substantial number of books by and about individuals including Dion Boucicault (1820-1890), author of The Shaughraun and The Colleen Bawn ; Richard Brinsley Sheridan (1854-1900), best known for his plays The Rivals and School for Scandal , and Oscar Wilde (1854-1900), poet, playwright and wit. The writers associated with the Celtic Revival of the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries are also well represented with publications by the poet and playwright W.B. Yeats (1865-1939); J.M. Synge (1871-1909), author of The Playboy of the Western World and Riders to the Sea ; George Russell (AE) (1867- 1935), editor, poet and artist; Seán O’Casey, (1880-1964) author of The Shadow of a Gunman, Juno and the Paycock and The Plough and Stars ; and Lady Gregory (1852-1932), best known for her re-workings of Irish folklore and mythological tales, and founder, with Yeats, Synge, AE and Edward Martyn, of the Abbey Theatre.

    www.kazirhut.com Tell Me Your Dreams by Sidney Sheldon BOOK ONE CHAPTER ONE Someone was following her. She had read about stalkers, but they belonged in a different, violent world. She had no idea who it could be, who would want to harm her. She was trying desperately hard not to panic, but lately her sleep had been filled with unbearable nightmares, and she had awakened each morning with a feeling of impending doom. Perhaps it's all in my imagination, Ashley Patterson thought. I'm working too hard. I need a vacation. She turned to study herself in her bedroom mirror. She was looking at the image of a woman in her late twenties, neatly dressed, with patrician features, a slim figure and intelligent, anxious brown eyes. There was a quiet elegance about her, a subtle attractiveness. Her dark hair fell softly to her shoulders. I hate my looks, Ashley thought. I'm too thin. I must start eating more. She walked into the kitchen and began to fix breakfast, forcing her mind to forget about the frightening thing that was happening, and concentrating on preparing a fluffy omelette. She turned on the coffeemaker and put a slice of bread in the toaster. Ten minutes later, everything was ready. Ashley placed the dishes on the table and sat down. She picked up a fork, stared at the food for a moment, then shook her head in despair. Fear had taken away her appetite. This can't go on, she thought angrily. Whoever he is, I won't let him do this to me.
