Historical Essays from Limerick Civic Trust
The following articles were written by the participants on the History and Folklore Project, Limerick Civic Trust.
The project ran from 1994 to 2012 with David Lee as project co-ordinator and Debbie Jacobs as assistant co-ordinator (2000-2012).
These articles are presented in various stages of preparation from first draft to near final proof, the state of readiness when the participant completed the scheme. Some were written to be part of Limerick Civic Trust's “Made in Limerick, No. 3”, which never happened.
