    Hi all,
    I've recently become interested in the Lorto Abbey site and its wealth of attached history.
    When using google to unearth information, this is the main site ive found, http://www.rathfarnham.com/loreto%20abbey.html!
    The problem is the data on William Palliser is incorrect,and so I'm lead to believe the rest of it is questionable.
    Id love to find the names of books or other websites which may have a good source of info on this site,
    Any help would be greatly appreciated
    Thanks

    Hi there,

    Have you been to Ballyroan library? They have a really good selection of books on local history, including some on Rathfarnham. I think it could be a good place to start.

    You have probably already seen this website as well: http://www.loreto.ie/archives/foundations-made-by-m-teresa-ball/186-loreto-abbey-rathfarnham-

    Books: (Don;t know how easy these are to access)

    Loreto Abbey Rathfarnham : a brief guide / [Michael Connolly

    "The Abbey" : an appreciation of Loreto Abbey, Rathfarnham / [researched and written by Anne Dempsey et al.]
