Dear Mr.Grinch, Shanew, aghadowey, Sio and Supermiffy.
I believe this post maybe 8 years old but I have just happened upon it. I am absolutely blown away! I am Frank Muspratt's great-grandson. His daughter Eileen was my Grandma and I was very close to her as a child - she died when I was 10. She was the most extraordinary lady - as was my Great Aunt Gladys - who died when I was 17.
My Father is Eileen's only son - he also died when I was a child. My Mother as well.
I have always felt very drawn to my Irish roots in Limerick and I'm also the beneficiary of an extraordinary musical legacy. On my Mother's side, I am the great grandson of the world famous concert pianist Adelina De Lara and on my Father's side, the great grandson of the great Professor of Music and organist of Limerick Cathedral - Frank Muspratt. I am so happy to have inherited the musical genes and have created my own musical legacy now; as a singer-songwriter, producer and poet and as a teacher, founder and Principal of the Harmony School.
Thank you for all this amazing info on my family in Limerick and my esteemed great grandfather. Because all my family had died before I was 18, I am keen to know more. I have incredible info + Glady's and Eileen's diaries. I would like to look at all these links on this thread, but some no longer work. If any of you can rectify this I will be most grateful. Meanwhile, I am clearly related to one or two of you - Mr.Grinch and Supermiffy - and I'm keen to link up with my distant relatives - especially regarding the Muspratt's. I'm happy to share all I know. I am also curious to find out how Eileen and Gladys ended up in the South of England (where I come from). My Grandma earned a degree at Cambridge university at a time when that was a much rarer thing. Her and Gladys were also 2 of the founding members of the Cat's Protection League (as an interesting anecdote!)
I include a photo with this message - my credentials so to speak. A plaque I proudly own. Really hope you receive this and are able to re-engage with this post. Best Wishes Jayl De Lara
