“Fox Tales in Ireland” Ten members of my family, plus the boy friend of my oldest daughter, eleven people in all, spent 11 days at Lisheen castle in November, 2009. The ostensible purpose was to try to track down information about my great grandparents, all of whom had come to America from Ireland during the potato famine, 1845 to 1855. We chose this castle as being fairly close to Clogher, where my great grandfather, John Fox had, we thought, been born and lived until he emigrated to England in 1851, and thence to the United States in 1853. Using the castle as headquarters, we spread out in 3 cars and visited many communities in Tipperary and elsewhere, checking churches, cemetaries, heritage centers and , most of all, pubs. We had some luck, but mostly we ran into mysteries. For one thing, I believe now that John Fox came from Clogheen, not Clogher, so we were aimed at the wrong target for him. If our stated purpose of tracking down ancestry information met with only limited success, the experiences we shared living together, planning and carrying out each day's activities, and just plain enjoying each other's company were truly memorable. I know I will keep these memories close to me as long as I live. It was cold. But there was warmth of a high order among us in the castle. The spectacular location, sweeping views, historical surroundings, and friendly atmosphere made the visit spectacular. The Everards are friendly, outgoing, and extremely helpful and caring people. We all enjoyed ourselves. I don't see how we could ever have a more enjoyable and meaningful vacation. Anywhere.
