Hamlet McClenaghan

Hamlet McClenaghan was my great uncle. He was a clergyman and his first parish was Outeragh Church in Ballinamore, Co Leitrim, where his father had served. He succeeded his brother, George, as a rector of the church (unknown) in Yeovil, where he met and married his wife, Annie. They returned to Ireland where Hamlet became rector of a group of parishes in Co Meath. There’s lots to read about him in ‘People Like Us’, in particular the transcriptions from his wonderful Preachers’ Books.
