    3. Hello Dennis: Thanks so much for posting the excerpts from IRISH GREEN AND UNION BLUE. I've been trying for some years to find out about the Irish volunteers from Canada who served in the Union Army. My great grandfather's father lived in Boston but he lived on Howe Island in Frontenac County, Ontario. His sister was married to S. OLMORE of either Massachusetts or Ontario who served in the Union Army. I can only find 3 OLMOREs who received posthumous commendations but no sign of either S. OLMORE or his wife Rose [O'BRIAN]. Her name is on her brother's tombstone in Sacred Heart Cemetery Wolfe Island, died age 26. Her husband must have been killed during the war. Thanks for giving me several leads on where he might have served. Happy Holidays - Carol California
