13. Epilogue
I am trying to put together a coherant genealogy for John Pennycuick 1841-1911. The man who built the Mullaperiyar dam, apparently with some of his own money. He is as you know greatly revered in Tamil Nadu India, and when last there, on a visit to folk in Chennai, I was taken to Kerala, and saw the full size figure and shrine commemorating his work. Any help you could give with his parents birth marriage and full names of the 11 children would be appreciated. Sincerely william
Hi,
I was just going through your website as I have been tasked with gathering historical information about Skryne Castle.
We currently occupy the castle at the moment and have now refurbished the castle and are available to book for weddings.
We are trying to put together a booklet of the castles history and wondered if you could provide me with any information.
Kind regards,
Lyndsey O’Connell
