The Family Home
Mary Mangan was born in the family home in Cloughmore with her brothers Patrick and Thomas, and sisters Margaret, and Katy.
She helped her sisters settle and live in England after looking after their children when they came to work in England.
Margaret Mangan married Jimmy Johnson, and they were granted rent free use of the family home because they could not afford one of their own.
Margaret and her family covertly claimed squatters rights by publishing and contesting the Mangan family title in Irish newspapers that none of her sisters or brother read.
The family home became a property acqusition by the Johnson family, and now remains in their property portfoliio.
This set of actions divided my Mother, Katy, Tommy from Margaret whose actions they regarded as a complete betrayal of any Mangan Family values and very sharp practice /theft of property to be transferred into the Johnson family.
Mary was very upset by the Deaths of her brothers in unusual circumstances.
