“About 50 years ago in Angelsboro' people did not wear boots until they were 20 yrs. of age.”
About 50 years ago in Anglesboro' people did not wear boots until they were 20 yrs of age. I saw people coming here to mass about 60 years ago barefooted and wearing red petticoats.About 70 years ago footwear came into use here. The shoes were wide topped ones and were known as "Catholics". Mary Cronin of Lackendarra was 78 years of age when she died. She never wore either boots or shoes in her life. She wore in Winter what were known as "Có-peens" that is a shin of a stocking minus the vamp.When Mrs Stanton the woman of the local pub, would ask her about her health after she had taken a meidirín of whiskey she would say:-
"Well, Mary Stanton, if I thought I'd die I'd lose my life."After washing their feet people always threw it out as it was very unlucky and highly dangerous to leave water after washing the feet inside or to leave any kind of dirty water inside.People always swept the hearth at night and left food and drink there for the Good People.
