My main (though hazy) recollection of Magherintemple is of being taken into the drawing room where a tiger skin was suspended from a wall.

Catherine was mentioned in her father Joseph's will. <br /><br /> Julius Cosnahan was Catharine's<br />half-brother and 17 years older than her. Since Catharine's father died when she was only two months old, Julius would have been a father figure for her.<br /><br />LesleyLesley McNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00640494399825985639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2705771450596300887.post-75043600438839302992013-12-20T19:36:25.036+00:002013-12-20T19:36:25.036+00:00The extract from Burke's Landed Gentry of Irel...The extract from Burke's Landed Gentry of Ireland contains several myths.
