Me three! Would love to see your Colcannon recipe. Will be leaving three weeks from today for a tour of Ireland and am so excited. Can't wait to see the Emerald Isle once again.

This is about genealogy and about Ireland. My fathers, father was named James Francis Sullivan. My father always said he knew very little about his father and knew him as Frank Sullivan. I started this genealogical journey and started looking for Grandfather Sullivan. Slowly I found facts, his name is James Frances, he lived in Salt Lake City where he was a projectionist. Married a Belva Peterson, and had four children, one boy three girls. In his obit there was no mention of my father, his ever having been married prior (altho it is listed in the 1930 census), he was born in Kilkaney, Ireland and his parents were John Sullivan and Rose McGuigan. I few years back I located three of his children, Michael, Barbara, and Sharon. Belva and Sharon died w/in days of one another, one in Utah one in California. They are both listed as living in each others obits. When I tracked down Barbara and spoke with her, she was surprised yet accepting of the facts I stated. Did not know her father had ever been married prior to her mother. Did say he came over from Ireland when he was about 3 yrs old, and his mother had died prior to that. He, his father and a maternal Uncle had all immigrated together according to her. He had lived in Omaha, and Colorado according to what little he had told his children. She did mention siblings, told me she knew one of her sisters Patricia was living in Florida or so she thought, had not spoken to her in a long while. Told me that if I spoke with Michael not to tell him I had spoken with her. I did call Michael and try to talk with him. His wife would not let me, said they knew nothing, that Michael was hard of hearing and ended the conversation. I did offer to send, and did send, copies of all my proof of what I was saying to each of them. Never heard anything back from either. About a year ago in newspaper.archives I found a couple of articles about Grandfather Sullivan. He had stolen some money from the union he belonged to, $47 if I remember right, and took off. They found him in Florida and brought him back to Utah. I don't think it was prosecuted as nothing further shows up. He did continue to work for the movie theaters. I did try to contact his union but have never heard anything back from them. I also contacted the Catholic church they attended, they referred me to the family. Fast forward to this month. I signed up for six months of Ancestry, went out and started poking around. Found the Social Security death entry for him, had an AH HA moment and sent for his SSN application. It came back this past week. Listed his birth as 1901 not 1900 as his obit said. Birth place Muncie, Indiana and parents as John Sullivan and Lillian Shultz. Once again more questions than answers for this illusive ancestor. Spent two evenings looking for them in Ancestry, went out on genweb and rootsweb and nothing. I do firmly believe that EVERY James F. Sullivan known to man had a father named John. EVERY stinking one of them!!! LOL If anyone has any suggestions on where to go from here, I would love to hear them. I think I will contact Barbara again and see if I can get anything more from her. Michael died a year ago, so that door is closed. Susan Boise, Idaho, USA

Susan, I never followed up with the search I did. I can try again with those names if you still need them. I am sorry, but that new great-grandbaby had me looking away from the mailing lists.
