Eva Ashe (b. 1926) ✓ In Stock

Eva Ashe initially recalls her late husband, Peter Ashe, who was a relative of the patriot Tomas Ashe from Minard in West Kerry. Her father, Michael Walsh, from Rathkeale, Co. Limerick, left home at an early age to work as an apprentice to the drapery trade in London. He returned to Dublin in the early 1900s as an agent for a London company and in the 1930s he established a hosiery manufacturing business on the top floor of Dunlop House in Abbey Street. Eva recalls and details the operation of this business. The business relocated and a new company, Camron Hosiery, was established in Harcourt Street, the directors of which included Michael Walsh, Michael Collins, Michael Egan and Joe Conroy. In the 1950, the business again moved to Cork Street, and located in the old Donnelly sausage factory, becoming known as Macey’s. Eva recalls the fashions in the 1940s and 1950s, and she discusses the demise of the company after Ireland’s entry into the Common Market. Eva was a student of the Dominican Sisters at a boarding school in Co. Wicklow and she remembers these days fondly. She contracted tuberculosis as a young adult and she describes her medical treatment at that time.

Pamela Casserly (b. 1926) ✓ In Stock

Pamela Casserly’s mother, Bridget Swanzy, married Thomas Casserly in 1923. He was a member of the Garda Siochána and he held the rank of Chief Superintendent. Bridget Swanzy’s sister Christina married Seán Connolly of the Irish Citizen Army. When Christina was widowed in 1916, she had three young children and no support was forthcoming from her own family. Pamela feels that this may have been due to her father or her grandfather ‘marrying out’, resulting in a break in the relationship with the rest of the Swanzys. She assumes that it was due to Arthur Griffith’s influence that Christina, her children and her sister Bridget went to live at 3 Mountjoy Square, the home of Walter Cole. Pamela explains that bedrooms in the house were for the use of Arthur Griffith and Eamon de Valera, and she remembers that her mother never really liked de Valera, relating an anecdote to illustrate this. Bridget’s brother, Patrick Swanzy, was in the Imperial Hotel during the Rising, and was interned in Frongoch. He was later involved in the burning of the Custom House with Piaras Beaslaí and was condemned to death, but the sentence was commuted. Pamela’s mother Bridget opened the door to Arthur Griffith when he returned to Dublin following the signing of the Treaty, and Pamela relates some remarks that her mother remembered from that time. The Swanzy family supported the Treaty. Her sister and brother were born in Mountjoy Square. She remarks that Michael Collins was remembered by her cousin Madge as being great fun, though de Valera’s personality was different. Pamela is researching her Swanzy connections and she discusses this research and its results. She recalls her mother learning Irish in Donegal from Sinead Flanagan, and discovering that the Swanzys were landlords in the northern counties. She discusses Patrick Swanzy, a brother of Bridget and Christina who became a master baker, and Pamela thinks that he supported the family. He and his brother set up a bakery on the North Strand
