A McCrehin Family History
With many apologies to Carol Sundquist (née McCrehin) for the very late publication of her family history.

New downloads in the Family Histories section
Working through my backlog of documents to post, and came across the following documents contributed by John McCrohan of Renard (again). John mentions in his email that he received them from Inés in Buenos Aires, a descendent of Don José.
Unfortunately for some of us, the documents are in Spanish only, so it would be great if there's anyone out there with the appropriate language skills who could translate these to English one day.

Publicity featuring Valentia Island, Renard Point etc
With thanks to John McCrohan of Renard, County Kerry in Ireland for requesting a copy of this short publicity slot from Guinness, and sharing it with us. This 4 megabyte film is of interest here, because it features background images of the Irish McCrohan heartland.
To further put the film in context, I'm copying a short article from "The Kingdom" newspaper, which was published September 15, 2005.

Photo Gallery back!
I'm delighted to say that the photo gallery is back in action. See link on the left to "Photo Gallery". As I don't have as much time to tend to McCrohan.net as I used to, I had to disable the photo gallery some time back when upgrading ..

Mac Crehin's Castle
Apart from its enclosing earthwork there are no visible remains of this castle, which was located on the lower South slopes of Bentee Mountain. It is associated with the McCrohan branch of the O’Sullivan Mores (Smith 1756, 107), and is referred to as ‘Letirmiccrohan’ in RIA MS 24 K 43.
Note:Article contributed by John McCrohan of Renard. Registered users can see a picture of the site of Leitir Castle in the Photo Gallery.

James McCrohan's Survey - response from Timothy McCrohan (East Coast U.S.A.)
Response from Timothy McCrohan to James McCrohan dated May 28, 1984.
Dear Jim,
I was very pleased to receive your letter in the beginning of April and am sorry for not responding sooner. Your project is very interesting to
me and there are so many questions to ask that one doesn't know where to start. Also there is quite a bit of information to
pass onto you that again it is puzzling to know where to start. I am enclosing a draft of
a "Family Tree" that a Father Clifford from Australia drew up about a year or so ago.
He came through the States in 1981 or 1982 and met with my cousin, Noreen, and myself.
