- About fifty years ago boot making was a great industry in Tallow.
Thee were about forty shoemakers altogether in the town. In one street, known at that time as Bog Lane, now Chapel Street, there were about twenty. All the people at that time got boots made; shoes were not worn.
Ned Burke, who lived in Bog Lane was a small stout man and he selected for his wife, a woman of the same build. He and Joaney took life very easy.
They had a legacy left to them by an uncle in America and they went there to claim it. This gave an inspiration to a local poet whose name was Batt Shine, to compose the following verses about them.
