What is recorded here
Catherine Byrne is a birthplace in Bluebell, County Wicklow, Ireland. Perhaps the house where she entered the world still stands behind a hedgerow, its kitchen warm with tea and argument on the night of February 26, 1956. Maybe the walls remembered the breath of a child who would later shape public life, holding that first moment like a seed waiting for rain.
