Visited Andrew Killeen farming outside Kilkee Co. Clare. We had a fabulous breakfast at his mothers house.His mum Mary Markham married John Killeen in 1956. They started milking 12 cows by hand and went up to 15 in 1987 when they got a milking machine. However they were advised to milk the cows by hand the last month before drying them off. They discontinued this procedure after two years.
