Description
Magical Ireland Series by Lexa Harpell.
Tracing our ancestry footsteps in Northern Ireland to County Fermanagh, which is one of only six counties in Northern Ireland.
Beautiful lush rolling hills contained rich soils and streams - idyllic for farming. The area was renown for its dairy and flax growing.
Locating their farmland allotments from the late 1600's was a bit of a nightmare. Using maps from the day and marrying them to the current day maps - names and boundaries had changed over time.
Finally locating them, I jumped the fence and layed in the long wet grasses and made angel wings - absorbing our ancestors essence.
Of course it was raining! It is Ireland after all!
