Énrí Ó Muirgheasa [1874-1945], was known to English speakers as Henry Morris. He was born an Ulsterman, in Farney, the southernmost of County Monaghan’s five baronies. Morris, first as a teacher, and then as an inspector of the schools, collected Irish manuscripts and transcribed poetry and song from his Co. Monaghan and Co. Donegal, and other regions.
