Glad you put it that way. There are no "hyphen" Americans!

Descendant from County Cork [O'Connor]. According to my grandmother (loooong departed), came over during the Potato Famine.

Like the rest (most) of the Irish here :-)

That's what happens when you've had too many green beers! I love St. Patrick's day.

My father grew up on a farm outside of Cahirciveen, in County Kerry. (He was number 14 out of 15 children.)

My parents came to this country 50 years ago.

May those that love us, love us.
And those that don't love us, may God turn their hearts.
But if he won't turn their hearts, may he turn their ankles, so we'll know them by their limp!!
