Magnificent Mural Now Completed

Artist Supreme from Tipperary, Neil O’Dwyer (on left) being congratulated by wonderfully dedicated Millstreet Tidy Towns Committee Members John O’Keeffe and Colman Culhane on the completion of the truly exquisite Mural at the entrance to Mill Lane (Mill View). Great credit is due to the O’Regan Family for the use of the excellent gable wall, to Tidy Towns for initiating the superb idea and for commissioning Neil – and to the Artist on bringing to reality the magnificent Mural which is already being hugely admired by countless people. A fuller feature to follow in later days. See Neil’s excellent website www.murals.ie to view his very wide-ranging masterpieces already achieved. (S.R.)

Genealogy: Riordans of Toorboney

Hello, my fathers family comes from Millstreet–the Riordans of Toorboney (spelling?). Daniel O’Riordan, who now lives in Newcastle (the Monsignor) is my fathers second cousin. I understand that the Buckleys now own the farm. If anyone has any information, stories on this branch of the Riordans, please share… Thank you in advance
