I have ancestors that came to America from Cootehill, County Cavan, in the 1750's. Thanks so much for posting this video, so I could see this town. Thanks Hugh O'Brien for telling about the history of the area and singing that lovely song.

My great grandfather, Michael O'Carolan was born there in 1873, and left at the age of 20 for America. I will be there this June. Can't wait to see it.

My grandfather came to Britain in the 1920's he fought in WW2 and was from Cootehill area. I have relatives all over the world being of Irish decent. It would be lovely to connect with them.
