Presentation to retired DPP - News - Sligochampion.ie: The name of Barnes has long been famous around Ballymote. His father, John, was a teacher in schools in Keash and in Ballymote town. His mother, Brigid, taught in Co. Tyrone and then in Emlaghnaghten and in Rathmullan. They made a huge and lasting contribution to the life of this area.
"In an article in the Corran Herald, Eamon himself wrote 'I am regularly amazed and gratified that long after their departures from this world, so many people speak of them as if they were still part of the fabric of life in the parishes of Ballymote and Keash and indeed of Co Sligo. And of course his aunt Mary Alice Coleman played a large part in school and community life here too. I myself arrived in Ballymote school too late to be taught by his father, but I have fond memories of knowing the two gracious ladies, his mother and his aunt, who lived for so long in the big house in Carrownanty.?
