Look up in Clare Champion: Death of John Hennessy in 1967

Post by JPJC » Wed Jun 25, 2014 1:44 am

Dear All,

My great-great uncle, John Hennessy lived at Ballinacragga, Newmarket-on-Fergus. Sadly, he was killed when he was hit by a drunken driver in 1967.

I have a copy of John’s Mass Card, which I attach for the Library’s collections.

I understand there is a report of the incident in the Clare Champion on 1 April 1967 and would be very grateful to anyone who could please send me a copy.

In return, I can look up material relating to Australia (especially convicts) at the famous Mitchell Library, which is near where I work.

Many thanks, especially to those who have very kindly assisted with my past requests.

JPJC.

Many thanks mcreed - that is most kind and much appreciated. I hope you will keep my offer to look up Australian-related material for you - or anyone you owe a favour to. Kind regards, JPJC
