He also had a painting of a middle aged lady in a mob cap, always known as 'Granny Donne'. We were told he 'rescued' it from Malin Hall and that she was a descendent of the poet John Donne and the Harvey family. We were told there was a sale of property from the Hall in early 20th century which caused some upset among the family. How true this is, I do not know.

He emigrated to the US around 1910. My mother went to Ireland twice to visit relatives in and around Malin.

I have always wondered what motivated the family to leave at that time and am hoping to find a historian of the area who might help me understand the situation in Malin at that time.<br />I visited Malin Hall in 1999 and met the new owners who explained that any records remaining in the home when they bought it were water-damaged.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07118655698355135918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2705771450596300887.post-6759475621958493582012-11-05T17:58:34.702+00:002012-11-05T17:58:34.702+00:00Malin Hall, built by the Harvey family in 1758 was...Malin Hall, built by the Harvey family in 1758 was never destroyed by fire [I think you are confusing it with Culdaff House some five or six miles away].

I lived in the house and farmed the 250 acre estate for some years after I left Agricultural College and until it was sold.<br />I understand the present owner has carried out some alterations.<br /><br />Ian Harvey, formerly of Malin Hall Ian Harveynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2705771450596300887.post-36267611705141293782012-08-27T22:29:58.210+01:002012-08-27T22:29:58.210+01:00Hello Tim
