Source text:
My mother's name was Hannan, from another part of the County of Limerick
and she had 2 brothers and 3 sisters, Aunt Conway, Aunt Shaughnessey and
Aunt Maloney.
[...] My mother's people were only a few miles from Ma's home, as
Newtown Crecoro, County Limerick was my mother's home . Years after my
mother had died in Dublin and I went to live and work in Limerick, I
used to ride out the seven miles to my cousins' ( Uncle Ned 's son and
two daughters) on Saturday afternoon and stay over until Monday. They
also had a large farm and there was a forth or rath on the farm down
near the main road (Newtown Road) and before I got the bike I always liked
walking.
