The society received the very kind donation from Michael McKillop, co-owner of the Glens of Antrim Distillery.

Founded in 1965, the society studies the history and traditions of the Glens and preserves such knowledge.

The Glynns is launched in September each year during the annual general meeting, and this sponsorship money will go towards production costs of Volume 49.
