    My fathers Brother was Anthony O'Donnell Who lived all his life in Dungloe. He was known as Anthony the Bun (Or Anthony the Cake) because he used to be a baker in his younger days. He owned the Bridge end Sweet Shop, which i loved to visit as a young Nephew of his when on my holidays to Donegal. I remember the river running at the back and getting a 'free' ice cream! His wife my Aunty Delia is i'm happy to say still alive and must be well into her 90s now! Her Maiden name was Cannon, and i believe there are still Cannon's in Dungloe.
