[edit] Initial Stub

At some stage, I'll add to this. In the mean time, if you want to add, then please do. Some care will be required with the prejudice he faced. There is a lot of first hand material in the MII museum and library. Also, Patrick Flood's private museum.

Some books: Mulville Ingeniuos Ireland; Tyndall A story of lighthouses; Talbot Lighthouses and lightships; Gleason Kindly Lights ClemMcGann 01:46, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
