GUEST,Anna Burke Where is Spancil Hill (continued)? (47) RE: Where is Spancil Hill (continued)? 07 Jul 02

Thank you for the wonderful information! I'm glad to see that 4 years later, this thread is still alive.

I noticed a post on the original thread mentioning a band from Massachusetts named Spancil Hill - it made me laugh, because that is my father & uncle's band! To correct information on that post, they were born in Belmullet, not Spancilhill, and they've lived in the states for a long time now. We've all been back to Ireland, though, and have stopped by The Cross at Spancil Hill in our travels to visit their namesake.

They've sung this song since they've been playing together, so I've heard it for the past 20 years or so. I never knew a whole lot about it, though, and will be passing this information on to them....along with the original lyrics!

Thanks again, Anna Burke
