Susan Murtagh

Born

Died

Gender
Female

Susan's parents were Patrick (Patt) Murtagh and Anne Devine. We think she was born in Cuingareen. So far we have found no siblings for Susan. Susan married James Brady on February 20th 1878 in the Roman Catholic Chapel of Columbkill. Susan died June 1918 in the longford workhouse. We don't think she was an inmate there but was admitted to their hospital. We keep hitting brick walls with our Murtagh and Brady side so any help would be great.

    Travelling Folk in the 1930s

    <p>Between 1937 and 1939, primary school pupils across the Republic of Ireland interviewed the elderly in their neighborhood to collect and record local stories and folklore from the 19th century. "The Schools Collection" as it became known is held by the Dúchas Folklore Collection in UCD and is and has been digitized online at duchas.ie. One of the topics schoolchildren were asked to write about were "Travelling Folk" or An Lucht Siúil. </p> <p>Here is a selection of what "settled" children wrote about travelers in the late 1930s.</p>
