I came across an old silver match holder and it has an inscription: T.T. to J.M. Dublin 1884 and then has the word "Cahirmu" in quotes on it. I know there is a town called Cahir and a Cahir Castle, but I can't find the meaning of Cahirmu.
I would appreciate any help. |

Are you certain about "Cahirmu"?
Could there be any marks above any of the letters? Is this in the old style script?

No, there are no marks. The script is modern.

Contact Ghosty on the other site. I think he can tell you exactly what it stands for. In fact he may have already sent you an email already with what it means. |
