The return shows all who were present at the O'Brien farmhouse at the top of the borheen at Glencushabinna, Aherlow, Tipperary on the night of Sunday 31st March 1901. My father, Denis, was one year old - the youngest present. The head of the family was my great-grandmother Johanna O'Brien (nee King) who was 70 years old and the return bears her signature. Altogether there were 13 persons listed, my great-grandmother, her son Patrick and his wife Bridget who ran the farm, their five children and four brothers and one sister of Patrick.
