Excerpt of Email from Orla. Dear Joe & Marianne. I am writing regarding the upcoming reunion. Thank you very much for the invite but unfortunately none of the Farrells will be able to attend. Mam is awaiting an operation on her back and is due to be called in the next few months. We are sorry we are unable to attend. I have looked at your blog and have another photo that you might be interested in. It is of the original homestead of the Farrells, Kiltoghert, CO. Leitrim. Myself and Aiden now live next door to the original homestead with our baby son Tola. I have seen the photo on your blog (black & white) of my Great Grandfather John and my Great Aunt Bridie and Tess and my Great Uncle Thomas, John & Willie. This is the house where they all grew up along with their other brothers and sisters Mary, Jane, Ann (who passed away at 19) and James (my grandfather). Kind Regards, Orla Farrell Beirne
