In The Name Of Willie Clancy - Donal Dineen and Myles O'Reilly

"A unique perspective of Willie Clancy week in Miltown Malbay, Co Clare, through the eyes of Donal Dineen and Myles O'Reilly by invite of Caoimhin O'Raghallaigh and the St.Joseph's Fiddle School. 'Our inspiration for this documentary was a film Tony McMahon made of the Fleadh in Listowel, County Kerry in '73. It's a very powerful piece of work and it struck both of us like lightning. It really captures the spirit of the place, the people and the time. There are glorious performances throughout and really critical interviews with some giants of the age. As a Kerryman myself I love the way McMahon's camera interacts with the many faces of the Fleadh. We see so many of them in his film. It's a folk festival and the director introduces us to the people, the best a filmaker can do. I think seeing it woke us both up to the importance of trying to highlight the virtues of something really vital that might be get missed and lost in time otherwise. If you can capture the essence of what something stands for at a particular time then it becomes a valuable document just like 'Listowel 1973'. That's what took us to Milltown Mallbay.' Donal Dineen. Filmed by Donal Dineen and Myles O'Reilly. Edited by Myles O'Reilly." Posted on Youtube on the 28th of April 2013 by mylesoreilly.

6,000th photo added to Graveyard Inscriptions Collection in Foto

The 6,000th photograph was added to the Graveyard Inscriptions Collection in Foto, our online photographic database, this week with the uploading of Bunratty Graveyard, donated by the Clare Roots Society.  Headstone inscriptions are a very useful tool for genealogists, listing names, dates of birth and death, relationships between family members and place of residence.  Several generations can be listed on a single headstone.  By its nature, this information can be difficult for people to access.  There are now photographs with transcriptions of 47 Clare graveyards in Foto.  The text of the transcriptions can be searched for surnames, placenames etc.  The transcriptions for each graveyard can be read as a whole in our Donated Materials Section . This section also includes transcriptions of graveyards without photographs, bringing the total numbers of graveyards covered to 125. All these transcriptions and photographs have been donated by individuals, historical and genealogical societies and community groups.  Thank you all.

Mullaghmore Mountain in County Clare - Trek Ireland Treadmill

"Described by John O'Donoghue, author of Anam Cara, a book of Celtic Wisdom, Mullaghmore mountain is a holy mountain, a 'tabernacle' situated in the very heart of the Burren 'whose twisted shapes evokes a poignancy that once glimpsed can never be forgotten'. On a glorious sunny day, with wild flowers of every description bursting out through the bare limestone rock Trek Ireland's treadmill video follows a Famine relief road before turning sharply off the road to walk roughshod over the glints and grikes of this wonderful landscape, passing dry stone walls and sheep pens, to the top of a hillock..."
