- This video was recorded by my great uncle Myles Coen who came back to Ireland from New York in 1956. Mostly recorded in Gleann and Easkey/Rathlee Sligo. I know of a few people in the video but if you think you know anyone, drop a message in the comment section.
Hope you enjoy watching it.
Wonderful. I found it very evocative. A world long gone.
Wonderful memories as I grew up in that period of Irish life,thank you for sharing, it's hard to believe how Ireland has developed since then.Very nostalgic .

Hi I lived in Gleann as a child for a while in the 70’s. My stepfathers surname was Leydon. He would have been around 9/10 at the time this video I think. I remember the cottage being near the school. His eldest sister was called Mary she married & moved into the town. I stayed with her,fond memories.
This is my extended Family. I very well recognize Gr Uncle Mike. I helped him with the hay, there in Sligo
