In 1900 Tim Mahony, of New York then finishing his training as a priest in Louvain and destined to be a distinguished Prelate called to see his family relations. His parents were Irish born, one side descending from Barnabas Lantry (Langtree), of Cromwelian Stock who married an O’Leary (her family were large farmers and had a mill outside Drimoleague) and had 23 children in Caheragh. He wrote a letter setting out his experiences and among the O’Mahony realtions he refers to the Head of the family an old man living with his wife in destitution in a hut outside Enniskeane. The O’Mahonys had owned much of the Bandon Valley.
