  1. Old Crafts

    Share Share Post
    Ann O,Brien had a old spinning wheel in the townland of Bunavoy, Pallasgreen over 48 years ago.
    She spun thread from sheep's wool and sent the thread to some mill (name of mill not known) to be woven into flannel.
    This woman died some years ago. Had she lived she would be 107 years old:
