    In a letter to "Granny" published on The Childrens's Page of Weekly Irish Times on Saturday 30 June 1906, 14-year-old Mary Howe of Caherciveen writes of her family's outing to Valencia;
    A regatta is held every year in Valencia Harbour. There is always a great gathering of people and excitement at it. I, with the rest of our family, go to it every year and you may be quite sure that we come home pleased with our day’s outing. We had the pleasure of seeing the Secretary for Ireland at Reenard Point the other evening. He came in the steamer Granuaile. A large number of the townspeople came down and told him their wants. He came up from the point that evening in his motor car, and passed through the town.
    For her letter Mary won one of the 3 "Granny's Hampers" awarded that week for the best letters.

    There seems to have been an inclination at one time for using T for the town/port and C for the island.
    After the crew had been rescued by the Tenedos they were transferred to a local motor boat and landed at Valentia, Valencia Island.

    (Kerry Evening Post. - Saturday 27 August 1892) Presumably the writers assume that because there are 2 spellings, each must refer to a different entity. But mostly they are randomly interchangeable
