Paul, This book was published by the Knockfierna Heritage and Folk group.
The Chairman of this group is Pat ODonovan, The Key House, Newcastle West Co
Limerick. I am sure if you contact Pat he will let you know how to get a
copy of the book. The Knockfierna Heritage and Folk group is a West Limerick
based, set up todevelop the tourist potential of Knockfierna. If there is
anything you feel I might be able to do for you do not hesitate to ask.
Sean

1847-1997"? I would like to be able to either purchase a copy or consult
one in a library. I have maternal ancestors who lived in that locality
(Downes/Duane - Collins), some of whom emigrated after the Great Famine. I
don't expect to find their names in the book but I would like to read about
the fate of their community in those times.
