That's a tough one, Lois,

I don't know of any Doogras anywhere in Ireland, and the nearest Doogary is
across the border into Mayo, at least 15 miles from Tuam. I have no listing
for any Doogarys in Galway at all, but you probably knew that already - and
that's why you asked. I went through all of the Doo....s, and the Du.....s -
and nothing even close. Sorry.
