Re: John McKenna
at the risk of repetition...they're on the CCE Archive 
http://comhaltasarchive.ie/search?tab=t ... hn+McKenna
If the above doesn't work, just go to the archive and type John McKenna in the search box...or anything else takes you're fancy. You can do that as a guest without creating an account.
PS. If you have an account and then forget your password (like me) there appears to be no way to retrieve it from the website
