Beannachtai na Feile Padraig, agat!

My three times great grandfather left county Galway in 1850, and Settled in Maryland, where he married into a family named Crabbs. My mother's side of the family came from Roscommon, and contains the names O'kean, Compton, Conologe. The current names in our family include Colleen, Maureen, Corrine, Owen, Patrick, Seamus, Thomas, Blake, Ryan, and Aloyusius!:D

Since the passing of the grand folks, Gaelic is not heard so much at family gatherings, except in an occasional explicative, or blessing, but we remember.

How Ironic that Padraig (St. Patrick) wasn't even Irish...;)

Dia's Muire duit!


Q
 
Happy St. Pat's Day all!

I can claim to be 14th gen American on my paternal line so I'm pretty sure there's at least a pinch of Irish in me somewhere. :D

cheers,
lunamoth

P.S. As you can see by my wings I'm in full regalia--luna
 
my grandmother was half Irish. I guess that makes me 1/4. Love that cabbage.
