    Interesting that he actually used the term townland. Many people out in the country still use the names of townlands from generational memory, but apart from local historians I’ve never heard of anyone actually calling them townlands.

    Is this memoir already typed and just needs to be digitized or is it handwritten?

    This does technically include doxxable information but I just told everyone in hextube my address because I am facing down some real bad stuff anyway so it doesn’t really matter. Also If I am lucky I can make like my friend that published Angela’s Ashes and get rich off a memoir about Irish suffering.

          It’s not like you’ve historically cared much about it, a fun fact: I’ve actually been within a mile of you before.
