My father, Samuel McGibney, born in Belfast, was a Cousin to David. We had a lovely stay there for several days where we enjoyed the singing of Hymns and listened stories of folklore, the history of the Bogay House and family history. So enjoyable to meet my extended family. At that time I was living in the San Francisco, California area. For the last 27 years I've been living in Sarasota, Florida.

I know no one connected to this house but I love all the history and reading about the lives of those who lived there. I hope it does not fall into disrepair and that it continues to house interesting and wonderful characters.
