Query from Castletownbere Regarding Millstreet Connection

We recently received the following query from Castletownbere:  In bygone days the late Ben Casey was an R.I.C. Officer in Millstreet.  When his first wife passed to her Eternal Reward, Ben later remarried.   It is the decendents of Ben who have Millstreet connections are being asked to make contact.   Some 25 years ago on a visit to Castletownbere a relative of Ben who is now deceased presented his accordion  to the Millstreet related visitors (who most likely enjoy music).   For more details on this please contact millstreetmuseum @gmail.com or make contact by phone, WhatsApp or text (086 – 825 0074).   We shall then explain in greater detail why we received this query.  (S.R.)
