- The Bowen family in former days owned most the land in the townland of Lackamore. In the bad times they were reduced to poverty and when the Lackamore mines were working over one hundred years ago three members of the family who remained became shoe-makers by trade and made shoes for the miners.
Jack "Boney" made shoes in farmers houses while engaged in such work at Dawsons of Cureeney fell in love with a daughter of the house and eloped with her. They lived for some years at Garryowen where Bill was born. He composed many rhymes and satires.
Bill "Boney" his son came to live in Lackamore. He was an expert at his trade and won a prize for making the upper of a shoe without a single stitch.
Dan "Boney" lived in the Mines and was a nephew of Jacks. He was a farm labourer and while digging potatoes at Hartnetts of Murroe composed the song "Mary from Murroe" and sang it at her home that night. It has become quite famous and has since been recorded.- Bailitheoir
