Tickets for the Royal Showband used to go on sale in our local town at one in the afternoon on the day of the dance they were all gone in an hour or so. I remember seeing the late Tom Dunphy in a hotel in Dublin just a few days before that tragic accident.

I don't suppose you know much about every single version of this book, right? But I've got a copy whose cover was manually done by a publisher called "The Garnier Brothers" in France, dedicated to my great-grandmother Elena de León... unfortunately, there's no date of when it was done. However, I know it is somewhere between when this book was still called "Mortimer & Amanda" instead of "The Children of Abbey" (This book, specifically, is in Spanish and from Guatemala, so it's actually "Oscar y Amanda"). Probably anywhere from the 1910s to the 1940s. Anyhow, if you have any sources or ideas of where I could get a more specific answer, I would appreciate it greatly! For now, the only thing I can think of is to learn French and call the location to see if they have a record of these things-

My husbands family came from Waterford to NFLD in 1790. They are so Irish in speak & ways. Been to NFLD 18 times. Everyone should visit. Gods country.

So beautiful! Thank you!

Thank you for this, very helpful

Hi! What i need to study to become a library assistant? Thanks (:

I am from Newfoundland and my husband, my mother, and my Finnish husband went to Ireland for a holiday. Mom and I would twack the secondhand book shops looking for old cookbooks. No shop clerk could place our accents! One lovely lady said to me "I have never heard your accent before, what part of Ireland are ye from?" LOL BTW Definition of Newfoundland word Twack - to shop!

Great connection b/t NL and Ireland. My ancestors hail from Waterford on my mother side and from Letrium on my fathers side. I grew up in Newfoundland on the Southern Shore in a little fishing village called Trepassey. Ireland is on my bucket list..

Can’t wait to visit Waterford city and Dungarvan again one day

The Irish voice comes out in their music in the pubs as well....both song and dance alike. Love it! Small wonder the Newfie's can drink...

Rant and roar

My 3x great-grandfather, left Carrick-on-Suir for Tilting, NL around 1800. His wife's father (from Waterford) settled in Tilting in the mid-1700s. Their grandson left Tilting (for Boston) in the late 1800s.

Best ever showband

Never heard them called out harbours. Mostly outport or harbours never out harbours

Newfoundlanders are proud of our Irish heritage.

I love it ❤️

the only way I can tell that she's not a Newfie is that she pronounces it "new-fun-lind" instead of "new-fun-LAND". Other than that, would guess she's from the southern coast of Newfoundland

Amazing! You really do sound alike!

Just a shame shes not actually standing on the north quays, shes on the south quays.. Incredible someone is talking about waterford who doesn't even know what side of the river she is on!!😂

Love your videos. Hope to visit Newfoundland some day!

My ancestors were from Waterford, left for Newfoundland about 1800

Maxine sounds the most Irish I'm guessing she's from Ireland proper.

When I was in Ireland, I was in a book store and the clerk said to me, I can't place your accent. What part of Ireland are you from..... My Mom and I laughed and told her we were Newfoundlanders. We are not as Irish as the Avalon, more British accent with an Irish lilt. Accents in Newfoundland vary greatly.

Another reason they held on would be the Resistance to proper spoken English through Protestant reformation. These People refused in many ways to give up and give in too the Crown. Holding that accent and dialect said this is Ours, You can't and won't take it. It makes us unique, it makes us stand apart from you.

Interesting vid, thanks for sharing!

Actually many irish descendants lived on the east coast as well with strong irish accents they were all over the island not just the irish loop. Nevertheless, You've done a great job on telling a part of the true history of what took place in my home away from home. The out ports are communities alongside all the different bays along the coast of newfoundland. There use to be hundreds of these out ports or communities and many of these out ports have also died off because of the resettling, which you've talked about. Which destroyed these communities and the lives of many, many folks. My grandfather lost his lobster factory and my father and my older brohter's lost their fishing licenses. So they in turn, turn to carpentry work. What you failed to mention was that the government destroyed the fishing businesses which supplied the fish plants of thousands of fishermen. The government gave long liners the right to fish, who used drag nets to destroy the fishing grounds, which the government denied and failed to recognize. Instead they blamed the in shore fishermen for the decline of the fish, which is why they enforced the so called resettlement idea in the first place. Instead it was the foreign fishing vessels and the long liners that fished these waters and as a result destroyed the fishing grounds for years. That is why many newfoundlanders were forced out of these fishing ports, so the long liners and the greedy fishing corporations could fish the waters but the little guy was no longer able to fish. Which destroyed families and communities that is why many NewFoundLanders had to move away to the mainland because of the failed fisheries, which was done by our government, and later the government implemented the moratorium, which basically was the second wave of destruction that caused many to move away. That took place in the early nineties. Which caused even more of these communities to die off. As a result many had to moved off the island and moved to other provinces within Canada to find work. Mostly they moved to Ontario and Alberta and even British Columbia. And many moved to the USA. A lot of our women married US military service men because the US had a army bases all over the island during and after world war two. And young women from all over the island met these men and married them and moved to America. I have many relatives who live in America because my aunt married US service men. Our family left Ireland during the potato famine in the mid eighteen hundreds and lived in Summerville, which still exists but there aren't many folks left there any more. My older brother still lives there, but he says, now, not many are left. Its located in Bonavista Bay, which is on the far east coast of nfld about three hours drive from St John's.

Excellent.

Thank you for this respectful and detailed account.

“I find television very educating. Every time somebody turns on the set, I go into the other room and read a book.” Groucho Marx “A children’s story that can only be enjoyed by children is not a good children’s story in the slightest.” C.S. Lewis “I have a passion for teaching kids to become readers, to become comfortable with a book, not daunted. Books shouldn’t be daunting, they should be funny, exciting and wonderful; and learning to be a reader gives a terrific advantage.” Roald Dahl “I kept always two books in my pocket, one to read, one to write in.” Robert Louis Stevenson

Keep up the great work!

Nice to see recognition from Ireland, thought you forgot about us.

Excellent! Thanks for uploading.
