Miss Turbitt was born in Boyle and she was 8 years old in 1901. (census). She was very active in the Gaelic League from the 1920's working at Roscommon Vocational School. I have details of her and her brother James from Kathleen Hegarty Thorne's excellent book "They Put The Flag a-Flyin'".
I would be grateful for any further information as she worked with my father Martin Gaughan in RVS.
Many thanks
Monica
