Author: Valda Strauss

Fourteen year old County Clare girl, Catherine Hudson, rescued her Protestant soldier boy who had been left for dead on the battlefield at Waterloo. Seven generations later her story is still fascinating her descendants. It is enriched with each generation as marriage brings the story of another family. It is interesting to observe just how closely these stories match with the history of the times, adding a personal dimension. Dry history comes to life.
