@verareynolds @DJderv@Limerick1914 When did they move Clare out of Munster? -
@BocktheRobber @DJderv@Limerick1914 You are correct I had send it when I saw mistake Connaught was how it was spelled when I went to school -
@verareynolds @DJderv@Limerick1914 Connaught is an anglicisation of Connacht. It's not the definitive spelling, but simply an alternative. -
@BocktheRobber @DJderv@Limerick1914 I bow to your knowledge but ancient maps show it as Connaught but then 700 of the rule it would be. -
@verareynolds @DJderv@Limerick1914 Of course ancient maps show it as Connaught. They were all drawn up by British military surveyors. -
@BocktheRobber @DJderv@Limerick1914 I think u,ll find that it was that spelling used in the Gaelic form & was there before the M. surveyors - Show more

@Limerick1914 what happens now ? -
@Limerick1914 babies were dying two a week, but still trying to figure out how they could put the bodies in a septic tank? -
@Limerick1914 its hard not to feel sorry for them. Wouldn't you love to know where they landed in life? -
@Limerick1914 that's just cruel they didn't have a chance at exploring the world and didn't use their imagination
