What is recorded here
John Buckley is a birthplace in Inchigeelagh, County Cork, Ireland. Perhaps the boy who became an Irish bishop first heard God's voice in the small rooms of that town. Maybe he carried the smell of sea air and candle smoke into every cathedral where he later prayed. Imagine him remembering the exact tile under his feet when he was born, still warm after the midwife left.
