Fort Dunree Military Museum houses one of the best collections of military artefacts and coastal artillery guns in the world.
Funding has recently been secured to upgrade the entire museum exhibition and we are inviting you to get involved.
To complement the rich collection of artefacts, we wish to include more of the human-interest stories in the new exhibition, which will be opening in March 2021.
Management at the museum would love to gather as much relevant and accurate information as possible about the stories of those:
• who were stationed there
• who worked there
• who lived there
• who supplied the Fort
• who may have artefacts or memorabilia relevant to the history of the Fort
• who have any information on a George Beers, born in Desertegney in 1822
Fort Dunree said they recognise that Fort Dunree’s history is long, and that many of those who had first-hand experience of life in the Fort may have passed on.
So they are also inviting relatives and friends who know the stories of their ancestors to get in touch.
If you have a story to share, please send a contact telephone number along with a few of lines about your story to dunree@blue-inspiration.co.uk.
