Letter 1: Are You a Descendant of The Queen of Connaught?
We start off with this letter, all about the connections between an ancient Irish mythical queen – and a very real “descendant” of hers who came across similar problems in Canada.
Letter 2: The Two Graces of County Mayo.
Next up, we chat in this letter about two special ladies who came from County Mayo – one a Hollywood movie star, the other a Pirate Queen – but sharing a first name between them. Can you guess who they are?
