Career
Walsh was a native of Oughterard, County Galway, a Gaeilgeoir, and musically self-taught. He provided O"Neill with some information concerning obscure Connacht pipers:
"Martin Moran was a native of County Mayo, and Charles Daly, though born in Clara, spent most of his time in Galway. There was another piper, known only by the name “Eunachaun,” who for neatly thirty years enjoyed enviable popularity in Iarconnacht.
Number wedding or christening could be properly celebrated without the piper and his music in that district or in Connemara in the “good old times.".
