The good news that memorabilia associated with famous John Mc Cormack has been acquired by the National Museum and is to be put on display in Collins Barracks.

It is possible that the collection may visit mayo at a later stage. The decision rests with Dr. Wallace of the museum. It would be fitting if it were put on show in Turlough House in lieu of the fact that Count John Mc Cormack used holiday in Ballycroy. See link below.
