A picture to the past: Reconnecting a community and its emigrants on Facebook 

Old photographs recall people and places in Baile Mhúirne, Cúil Aodha, and surrounding areas in days gone by

One of the photographs on the site shows former pupils of Réidh na nDoirí.

The Covid-19 lockdown has proved the perfect time for an online initiative which has rekindled old friendships and brought memories flooding back for members of a Cork community.

A Facebook group called ‘Inné agus Inniu’ has seen old photographs pour in as members recall people and places in Baile Mhúirne, Cúil Aodha, and surrounding areas in days gone by.
