Therese Hicks - The Kennedys of Mount Kennedy by History Hub

In this Tudor and Stuart Ireland Conference podcast, a recording of a paper by Therese Hicks. The paper was entitled: 'The Kennedys of Mount Kennedy'.

Therese Hicks has an MA in theology (St. Michael's U, Toronto, 1976) and an MA in Counselling Psychology (Lesley U, Cambridge MA, 1991). Originally from Pennsylvania, her explorations of the area in which she now lives, Newtownmountkennedy, Co. Wicklow, have led to her recovering the early history of the Mount Kennedy estate, which has not been previously investigated. The estate papers are part of the Wicklow Papers (NLI), which only came into State ownership in the 1950s. She is currently retired from the HSE.
