  1. The Author of the Banks of the Boro

    Share Share Post
    On Miss Mahon's land at Knockredmond, Clonroche, Enniscorthy there is the ruins of an old mill - the mill race is still to be seen
    This mill was worked by a man named Kennedy, and the Kennedy who wrote "The Banks of the Boro" and "Evenings in the Duffry" is said to have been a member of this family.
    Joseph P. Kennedy, the American representative in England at present, is said to be a descendent of these Kennedys.
