History of St. Nathy's College Ballaghadereen
« on: Sunday 14 September 08 23:50 BST (UK) »
I am at   the  moment researching  the history  of  St . Nathy's College  in  Ballaghadereen Roscommon .The  College  was  founded  in  1810 and  in  2010 it  will be  an  incredible 200 years  old . Thousands  of  students  passed  through  its classrooms  and  travelled  to  the  four  corners   of  the globe. I  am  searching  for old  photographs, news  items ,  memorabilia or  personal  memories  and  would  be  thankful  for  your  help . All  items  will  be  credited  in  the  book  and  returned .

My brothers attended St. Nathy's college Ballaghaderreen in the 70's and I have some photos. Provost Mitchell of Trinity College also attended in the 1960s. Eileen :o
