Shaw/Downes
« on: Tuesday 31 March 15 17:18 BST (UK) »
Hi,
   I have come across a poem written by John Shaw entitled "Home Thoughts". It is about memories of the townland of Drumneechy in the parish of Bovevagh, Co Londonderry. John Shaw was born in 1870 to William Shaw and Jane Downes who married in 1870 in Bovevagh Church of Ireland. From the age of three John lived in London. I will happily pass this poem to anyone who is interested. Also posted on the Londonderry board
