Christine and Rosemary looking for the O'Regan surname in the Book of Lismore, under the guidance of Christy Roche (EA)

Christine Fregosi, Rosemary Durant, Linda Nocella and their extended family paid a visit to Grange National School last Friday afternoon to learn more about their grandmother Mary ‘Molly’ O’Regan who attended the school in the early 1900s before travelling to America, never to return.
