Sir,—Fiona Fitzsimons in the last issue’s ‘Kindred Lines’ (HI 31.4, July/August 2003) omitted to mention that the Palatines also settled on the Ram estate at Old Ross, Co. Wexford, where names such as Jekyll, Rapple, Rhynehart, Hornick, Hess, Poole, Green and Hartrick are still to be found scattered across many townlands in the region.—Yours etc.,
BERNARD BROWNE
