“Tinkers we generally call the travellers that go around from house to house in our district.”
Tinkers we generally call the travellers that go around from house to house in our district. They come around about three times a year. The commonest of these are: - Mc. Carthy, O'Brian, Sheridan, Faulkner, Coffee and Flynn. The O'Brians were from Glin, the Sheridans were from Rathkeale, Faulkners from Clare, Flynn were from Wexford. The place where the O'Brians were in Glin was called the Tinkers Lane.
