Great day recording in Midleton, Cork yesterday for a new radio documentary for C103 Cork on the life of Nellie Cashman (1845-1925), Nurse, Restaurateur, Businesswoman, Philanthropist and Gold Hunter - a woman that has only recently been commemorated in her hometown, yet is celebrated in North America and Canada, as one of only 4 women ever indicted into the Alaskan Mining Hall of Fame as the ‘Gold Rush Queen’. Funded by the Broadcasting Authority of Ireland (BAI) with the Television Licence Fee. #broadcasting #radio #documentary #womeninhistory #goldrush #c103 #cork #history
