An Irishman's Home

Bag om An Irishman's Home

Thomas Kearey, born in Dublin in 1791, left home in 1813 as a young man of 22 trained as a smelter in gold and silver. He set out to seek his fortune in London, knowing he might never see his homeland or his family again. Thanks to his determination, charm and intelligence, he found success, security and love, and founded a dynasty. This is the true story of his life and times, researched, reconstructed and colourfully told two centuries later by his greatgreat-grandson Terence Kearey, a keen historian.
