175: The Kilkenny Famine Experience by Marion Acreman
Discover the heartbreaking stories of 976 famine victims which were buried on the site McDonagh Junction shopping centre in Kilkenny which now houses tha award winning Kilkenny Famine Experience.
The stories of the famine victims are re-told in particular the story of young brothers John and Patrick Saul who were abandoned during the famine years by their parents on the Dublin docks. Facing a devastating and lonely walk back to their home in Clonmel, Co. Tipperary, the brothers walked as far as Kilkenny before presenting themselves at the workhouse. Being accepted, they perhaps saved their lives and avoided starvation on the remainder of the road by doing so.
