More information here.Hello from London England. My father is Connie O'Brien from Glengar, born in 1919 and emigrated in 1948. He is still alive, healthy and married to Kitty O'Brien (nee Loughman). Unfortunately she is not so well and is in hospital following a stroke. She is making good progress in her recovery.
My Dad and I have been back to Doon for a week eac year for the last 4 years and, if circumstances allow, we are planning another trip for the first week of June 2007 - I'm following the May fly hatch and hope to catch it this time. Dad still has a wonderful memory of life in Doon in the 30's and 40's. If you are interested in meeting and talking to him, let me know. He always goes to Mary Jo's for a pint.
Best wishes
John O'Brien

HELLO FROM AUSTRALIA
I am descended from the Kennedys of Foilaclera and have visited Doon many times. I had a conversation there with Johny Moloney r.i.p just before he died and Michael Connors (Chinaman). I have heard that Michael has also passed on. I believe he has a daughter still living in Doon who I would like to contact.
I'm looking for information on a Richard Browne who left Doon, with is parents, brothers and sisters circa 1885, for Ballyboughal in north Co. Dublin. He was my great grandfather.

Thanx Padraig. I have corresponded with Peter Franklin of Corelish, but have not had any luck in contacting any other Franklins in the Doon area. I even sought the assistance of the Supervisor of the Garda Station in Doon. No response from him. If more information would help, You may contact me privately.

Stephen, there are still some Franklins living in the Doon area. I will see if I can get any information for you.
I'm hoping to make contact with any Franklins in the Doon area who will correspond with me about my family history. My Great Grandfather was Martin Franklin, and he was married to Bridget Kirby.
