To your Great Irish Romance series, I respectfully add the story of Bob and Mollie Monteith. For the full story go to AOH.COM and link to Historical Happenings for February and continue to NYAOH.COM and link to Historical Happenings. They put Ireland's happiness above their own for most of their lives and never received the recognition they deserved..
