Featuring articles on Dame Barbara Windsor’s Irish Ancestry, the Collins Family from Cork City by Fiona Fitzsimons; The Broderick Surname in Ireland by Paul MacCotter; Who Needs Genetic Cousins Anyway? by Maurice Gleeson; Defenders of the Sun: The “Divine Twins” in Ancient Irish Mythology by Eamonn "Ned" Kelly; and the final part of the Stephen Peirce's behemoth series Money, Mountain Dew, and Murder: Illicit Poitín Distillation in Ireland During the 1920s. A Four-Part Series. Part 4. There are three of the regular Dear Genie columns, featuring questions on the Hassard and Strong families of County Fermanagh, tracing ancestors through a Belfast Industrial School and O'Hara's on the 1911 Census. Our Photodective Jayne Shrimpton analyses a readers photograph. Niall Cullen discusses the latest Irish releases on Find My Past and Patrick goes in search of the Mysterious Granny Rodden. We also take a look at the new book from Peter Burke, True to Ireland: Éire’s ‘conscientious objectors’ in New Zealand in World War II (2019, The Cuba Press) as well as attend the launch.
