This is a paper delivered to the Royal Irish Academy on Nov 30, 1898. It is a cultural study of the land and people of Garumna & Lettermullen. My great grandfather Patrick Conneely is part of the study. His name appears at the bottom of the chart on pg. 236, with a description of eye & hair color, ears, head measurement etc.
The paper gives an excellent description the poverty and harsh conditions our recent ancestors lived.
Short excerpt describing the physical geography: "Approaching the island from the direction of Carraroe boatslip, the visitor is struck with the appalling desolation of the scene. From the water’s edge, across the whole island, the space seems occupied by bare rocks, those on the shore being washed white by the action of the sea. The peaty soil, if ever deposited, has long since been washed away* from the greater part of the surface. A perfect maze of granite walls, bounding the holdings and their innumerable sub-divisions, hides out all view of vegetation or of land. There are no trees or shrubs on Garumna, and were it not for the almost numberless cabins that dot the face of the island, one could hardly believe the place inhabited, it appears so utterly uninhabitable.”
