It's hoped many Clare families will finally be on the road to getting closure as preparatory works for exhumations at the the site of the Bon Secours Mother and Baby Home in Tuam begin today. 796 babies and children died at the home between 1925 and 1961, the equivalent of one child every fortnight. It's expected the excavations will take up to two years or longer to complete. PRO of the Tuam Mother and Baby Home Alliance Breeda Murphy says he suffering of mothers and babies in Clare cannot be forgotten.
