GUEST,John Moulden | French naval songs c.1760 (26) | RE: French naval songs c.1760 | 15 Nov 10 |
A little earlier than his failure off the Isle of Man, Thurot and his ships captured Carrickfergus in Co Antrim. Accounts, and songs about this are in Thomas Crofton Croker Popular songs illustrative of the French Invasions of Ireland (Parts 1 and 2) 1 published by the Percy Society in February 1845 and November 1846. Part One is Thurot's memoir, Part two deals with the capture. |
