Richard, how did you find yourself in Oregon? And what keepsakes might you have from your grandparents in Derry?

Gerry - we still have the farm in our extended family at Killyberry Lane, outside of Bellaghy, County Derry, Northern Ireland, my cousin Frankie Strathern owns the farm and my cousin both of Bellaghy Seamus Strathern, still owns the actual home, where my father William Charles Strathern, was born in 1901. For political reason/the troubles, in 1923 left Ireland and join my Great Aunt Jenny in Cleveland Ohio. I moved from Ohio in 1994 to Gresham, Oregon as a job transfer.
