Talk:Catherine Corless

Original Article
Does anyone know where the original article Corless wrote for the journal was published? It would be good to include as a reference. Million_Moments (talk) 18:52, 28 July 2018 (UTC)


 * Hi, . It was published (offline) in the Journal of the Old Tuam Society. I've managed to find this scanned version which I believe incorporates the original article. Bastun Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 09:33, 2 October 2018 (UTC)

Criticism
I would like to expand the article on the criticism of her work if possible as so far nearly everything is taken directly from interviews with Corless. The only other potential article I have found is this person who claims it is a hoax which does not look terribly reliable, and some claims that she was criticised by Diarmuid Ferriter but I am unable to find any reliable sources for that.

 * Haven't come across any criticism of her by Ferriter, but many of the usual suspects leapt to the defence of the Bon Secours order, and in dismissing Corless' research and/or explaining away remains as famine victims, would have been indirectly criticising her. E.g., Terry Prone's now infamous response to a French journalist. Bastun Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 09:07, 2 October 2018 (UTC)


 * Oh! Just now noticed the criticism/hoax claim is by John Waters (columnist) - yeah, that's not really all that reliable :-) Bastun Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 20:06, 18 October 2018 (UTC)
