There were no more in our family as mum died bringing Thomas into the world.
I try to picture her face...but just as I think I can see her, like a whisp of wind, the vision is gone.
We have a 2 room cottage about 2 miles from Thurles. Da works our little farm and works others as well, since we have 2 healthy horses that are my da's pride, we are better off then most of our neighbors

We all help on our farm, I say our, but we are tenants here and probably have the only good landlord in the country.

I heard stories that Mr.McGrath had a liking for me ma, she was the most beautiful woman in the county, or so I heard.
I would like to sit here, but I must feed the chickens and start dinner.
I will tell you more when I can.
