We recently added some 1950s theatre programmes from Roscrea to our ephemera collections.
The operatic society is now #Roscrea Musical Society and it's still going strong. I'm sure cast names will be familiar to locals.

You can see the ages abstract on image nos 250, 251, 254 and 255. Image 255 notes age-heaping, and the tendency of people 'especially females' to favour lower ages

#OTD 1895 the body of Bridget Cleary was found in a shallow grave. Believing she had been abducted by fairies & a changeling left in her place, she was ritually interrogated before her husband knocked her to the ground & set her on fire. dib.ie/biography/clea… #DIBLives

1798 didn't really happen in #Tipperary but on 16 July that year some men gathered at Boytonrath armed with pikes, pitchforks and scythes hoping to march on Cashel. Too few came so it was abandonded, some of them paid a terrible price.
