Hi Emma Sorry for not answering sooner but I was on holiday. Now I am thinking that my
Mother had a Brother who she never spoke of. She was a very secretive person. She went to
one of the Industrial Schools in Killarney and her Brother went to a Boys School in
Passage West in Co Cork. Any time that I met my Mother she was a very bitter woman, She
had also sent me to an Industrial School in Cobh Co Cork. I was as a child bright so I
stuck in at School and at the age of 17 years I went into Nursing and ended my days as a
Matron of a big teaching Hospital. Still trying to find out who I am.As you say yes it is
hard going but I am not one to quit. Yes it would be lovely if we had some connections.
You know the Callaghans came mostly from West Cork. I have got through to some of them but
not quiet sure where the connection comes from. Although one writes to me a lot from that
area. She thinks that we may be connected but I am still trying Emma email me on

d I will fill you in in what I have Good luck Essie
