Mohill Mo Scéal
A new digital storymap of Mohill
Mohill Mo Scéal, a new digital storymap of Mohill traces Mohill’s history from early settlement to life in the 20th century.
Created by Fiona Slevin, Fionnuala Maxwell and Kim Taylor, the storymap focuses on the lives of ordinary people, shedding new light on both known and less-told stories.
Mohill Mo Scéal focuses on Mohill as a market and trading town in the 20th century, and especially on the ordinary people who made their lives and livelihoods here. The stories include multiple images and web-links. Some include voice recordings, music and video.
