My Father worked as a salesman for Pabst Beer in Newark on Grove St for decades. Its landmark Pabst Tower was always seen from the Garden State Parkway. Earlier it had an incarnation as Hoffman’s Ginger Ale when I was in grammar school. My Father was able to buy wholesale bottles that were too full, not full enough, or if a label was missing as an employee.</span></div>

I have the names of all the passengers on the SS Austrian that left Cobh on June 24 1880 if anyone is interested. I'm looking for info on Lawrence O'Flaherty and his wife Mrya (marie ) Conneely. Mrya father was Mairtin Conneely ( wife Brighid ) I have nothing on my GGrandfather except he had a sister Siobhan, brothers Tom ,Seamus , Ruarie and their mother was from Inverin. Before coming to the US they seemed to be settled around the Spiddal area. Any help would be grand or if I can help someone .

What if you find a criminal, an abuser, or a racist?</p>
<p>In the book, <a href="http://rachelswarns.com/" target="_blank">American Tapestry</a>, Rachel Swarns explains how <strong>Michelle Obama'</strong>s family tree includes a slave owner named Henry W. Shields, and an enslaved woman named Melvinia. Shields' son Charles is most likely the father of Melvinia's son, Dolphus. Dolphus T. Shields was the first lady’s maternal great-great-grandfather.</p>
<p>Clearly, cultural norms change over time, and none of us is to blame for any actions taken by our ancestors. But if we feel pride in discovering a story of love, courage, or integrity in our ancestry, what do we feel when we discover something unpleasant? Can we feel pride in some, without feeling shame in the others? </p>
<p>Some of Mrs. Obama's distant living relatives were interviewed for the book, and their reactions are very interesting. Some live in hope that the relationship between Charles and Melvinia was consensual. One woman points to records showing Melvinia had more bi-racial children after the Civil War and says, “To me, it’s an obvious <strong>love</strong> story that was hard for the South to accept back then." Other relatives don't talk about the Shields' story outside of their homes, for fear of being painted with the same brush as their fore-father.</p>
<p>I think the most balanced approach comes from 69-year-old Joan Tribble, a white descendant of Henry Shields. She says, "I can’t really change anything. But I can be open-minded to people and accept them and hope they’ll accept me.”</p>
<p>What about you? Have you found any ethically complicated characters in your family tree? How does your family handle such discussions?</p>

I am at the end of my rope attempting to locate where my gr grandparents are buried. I have both of their death certificates that state they died while living in Kenmare and were both RC and members of the Kenmare RC Church. I gave tried to contact the church through letters with no response as well as researching online. They both lived in town, one died in 1907 the other in 1927. Does anyone have an idea of where they may be laid to rest? Their names are Denis Shea (1907) and Ellen Shea…

Their son Patrick Shea is listed on Ellen's death cert. and they were living in Davitts Place. I am traveling to Ireland in May 2015, but will only be in Kenmare for one day (it's a tour), and would like to visit their graves. Any help or ideas are greatly appreciated.

<p>Looking for the Irish roots of my great grandmother, Mary Halloran.</p>
<p>According to unverified family lore, she was born in Mountshannon circa 1855. Can anyone tell me what RC parish that would have been then?</p>
<p>At some point she migrated to the Sheffield, England area and married Patrick J Ryan at St Vincent of Pauls RC church. They later immigrated to either the U.S. or Canada.</p>

<p>I find myself trying to find some nugget of information in Ireland that might lead back to my 2x great grandfather, Michael Egan b. between 1808 to 1813.</p>
<p>He was said to have been an educated man. This information came to me from my great grandmother, Michael Egan’s seventh living child, as well as from the descendant of his oldest child.

<p>He was said to have been an educated man. This information came to me from my great grandmother, Michael Egan’s seventh living child, as well as from the descendant of his oldest child. My family says that he was educated to become a priest. Obviously he didn’t finish up. (or maybe <i>not</i> so obviously, hmmmm) My grandmother said he was educated at “Dublin University”. As I understand it, Dublin University is actually Trinity, so I doubt that this information is accurate.</p>
<p>Based on this information, these are my assumptions:</p>
<p>1. The second son was educated to be a priest (isn’t that Irish tradition?)</p>
<p>2. His family must have had some money to be able to send him to a seminary</p>
<p>3. I thought that in the early 1800’s Catholics were not allowed to be educated.</p>
<p>I found a Michael Egan at Maynooth..The time line is perfect, except that I can trace him throughout Limerick to his death. So obviously it wasn’t him. And I found a Patrick Egan, who was educated to become a priest, but didn’t, and he had a son named Michael, born 1810, who had a son born 1875 (really!!) P.M. Egan who became the Mayor of Kilkenney in 1887.)</p>
