Title: Delacy Warpipe Band, Tomsallagh
Post by: Hempstead on Monday 17 August 15 16:28 BST (UK)

Does anyone know where I can find any information or newspaper articles about this band from Tomsallagh around 1912?

I have found this website which has a lovely picture of the band and mentions newspaper articles but not which newspaper.

I hope someone with local knowledge might be able to help.  :D

Thank you  :D

Yes I'd come across those.

I'd really like to find the original newspaper articles.  Are any Irish newspapers online?

Could you advise me as to which are the best sites for Wexford newspapers?  I'm not having much luck.   :(

I've not had any luck with online irish newspapers.

I've sent an email to the website owner to see if I can find out which newspaper the article appeared in.
