My great grandmother was Marie Dennehy who used to live at the house that used to stand at the entrance of Mill Lane in Millstreet. It was said that Marie was a 1st cousin to Captain Con Murphy. Marie’s mother was Maryanne Murphy from Knocknagullane, Ballydaly. I was going through a family album that Marie Dennehy owned and I believe that I have a photograph of Captain Con Murphy.

Dia is Mhuire díobh go léir a cáirde and welcome to my report.
Travelled from Cork by bus at the weekend and it was a joy to view the countryside in brilliant sunshine. The fields looking lush and green others ploughed up and ready for the planting season. Cattle grazing but I have yet to see baby lambs. I’d say I’ll have to take a different route to find them and I will, le cúnamh Dé.
I’m all a thither and I suppose my mental storage is not what it used to be and when I get a blast from the past everything else has to take a back seat and what’s the cause for this eruption in me. Well it all stems from the fact that I came across some copies of Clara News during the week and reading it over filled me with wonder and awe. I’m sure that some of my readers are asking ‘what’s Clara News’. I can not recall when it came to an end but the copies that I found were in March 6th 1994 and April 1st, 2001. Clara News grew from humble beginnings, one page to be precise to a twenty pages publication which covered everything that went on in the parish for many years.
