Barroe Gaeilge agus Gaelscoileanna i gContae Mhaigheo Oirthearach
Posted: Tue July 6, 2004 06:14 AM UTC
Are there many Gaelscoileanna (Irish-medium schools) in eastern Mayo? Do people in that part of Mayo use Irish at all in their everyday speech?

My Grandmother came from Barroe (Barr Rua) near Charlestown. From what I've learned she attended such a school, with all her subjects in Irish. She moved to the States early on around 18 or 19 and returned to Ireland several times before she died.

Go raibh maith agaibh.
