Cashel-2.jpg (25906 bytes) The majesty of the Rock of Cashel dominates the Tipperary landscape, with Slievenamon visible in the distance. 

Cashel is where St. Patrick converted the Kings of Munster to Christianity. It is visible from the Murnane homestead.

There is a Marnane buried in the cemetery visible on the lower right of the castle grounds.

Map at left shows Southwest Corner of Ireland, where our Tour will take place. From Shannon Airport, we'll move through Limerick and Tipperary Town to Clonmel.  The Murnane homestead is between the designations for Tipperary and Cahir.  The Rock of Cashel is slightly north, just below the green TIPPERARY indicating County Tipperary.

From Tipperary, we'll move south to Cork and Cobh Harbor and then back to Shannon or elsewhere, as your plans determine.

 

Young Irish girl Annie Moore and her brothers were the first immigrants to enter Ellis Island in 1892.   They sailed from Queenstown (now Cobh) in Cork where an impressive Heritage Center tells the story of the Irish who left for America, including the Murnanes and Marnanes.

Cobh (pronounced cove) will be one of the stops on the Murnane Reunion Tour in 2002.
