Saint Patrick "The Apostle of Ireland" Patrick was born in the year 387 AD. His father was Calpornius, a deacon, son of Potitus, a village priest in the town of Bannavem Taburniae. His mother was Conchessa. At age 16, he was captured by Irish marauders and sold into slavery to a chieftan named Milchu in Dalriada, in present day Antrim. For six years, he tended sheep in the valley of Braid and on the slopes of Slemish - near the town of Ballymena. While in captivity, Patrick turned to God for deliverance. One night he fled, and by his own account, travelled 200 miles westward to Britain. Deeply affected by his relationship to God, Patrick went to St Martin's monastery at Tours. He studied under St. Germain and became a priest. When Germain travelled back to Britain as a missionary, he brought Patrick with him as an assistant. While in Britain, he had a dream: "And there I saw in the night the vision of a man, whose name was Victoricus, coming as it were from Ireland, with countless letters. And he gave me one of them, and I read the opening words of the letter, which were, 'The voice of the Irish'; and as I read the beginning of the letter I thought that at the same moment I heard their voice - they were those beside the Wood of Voclut, which is near the Western Sea - and thus did they cry out as with one mouth: 'We ask thee, boy, come and walk among us once more.' " * Patrick was sent to Ireland by Pope St. Celestine I to convert the Celts to Christianity. The previous missionary, Palladius, had failed miserably. In 433 AD, Patrick landed near Wicklow, at the entrance of Skerries Harbor. Off the main shore, there is a rock that is said to bear his footprint - where St. Patrick first set foot on Irish soil. Patrick headed towards Dalriada, to meet his old master, pay his ransom and convert him. Along the journey, he met a chieftain named Dichu, who drew his sword against him. However, his arm became rigid as a statue and he was not able to move until he pledged allegiance to Patrick. Patrick's missionary work in Ireland was difficult and fraught with danger. He was taken captive twelve times by his own account, and came close to death several times. Yet he persisted. In 444, Daire, the chieftan of the district of Armagh, granted land to Patrick where he could erect a church. This is now the site of the great cathedral of Armagh. When not engaged in his missionary work, Patrick spent his free time in prayer. He spent 40 days fasting and praying at the top of Eagle Mountain, in a mountain range in Connaught. The mountain, some 4,000 feet in height, would become known as Croagh Patrick - St. Patrick's Mountain. Patrick would consecrate 350 bishops in his lifetime. His work converting the Celts to Christianity had been successful. As his life drew to a close, he had a dream where he was told he would judge the whole Irish race on the last day. St. Patrick died on the 17th of March, 493 AD at Saul (Sabhill) in county Down. He is believed to be interred where the Cathedral of Down presently stands. *From "The Confession" by St. Patrick. Translated from the original latin by Ludwig Bieler. You can read "The Confession" at: http://www.ccel.org/p/patrick/confession/confession.html

We'd like to send a St. Patrick's Day blessing to everyone on the list - May the Irish hills caress you. May her lakes and rivers bless you. May the luck of the Irish enfold you. May the blessings of St. Patrick behold you. Have a wonderful, joyous, dance & music filled St. Patrick's Day! All our best, Jim & Tracy

It is a chain all over that goes by several different names they have a website at www.wildoats.com you could probably find one in your area. I liked the butter, the cheese was ok.

I simply cannot resist answering this one. My best memories of the parade are from when I was a teenager and marched with the local parish band/brigade. Ok...it was in the mid fifties <grin> It was the time of school girl crushes and silly romances. When we could get away with it we would deliberately accidentally miss the bus hired to take us to and from the parade. Some of us had phony proofs or had copped an older siblings so we could get into the bars up in Yorkville. I don't remember drinking or staying out too late...we wouldn't dare...but we had a great old time, singing and dancing...especially with the college boys <grin> The parade I remember most vividly was in 1967. I worked half a day and with friends had lunch in a great place in the 50's.....John Barleycorns....and later met my husband and "did" the great Irish bars on third avenue...PJ's etc. I am totally convinced my first son was conceived that night....LOL It is and was a great day for the Irish. Here in Southwest Florida we could not get a broadcast of any of the parades.....and the Naples one was so crowded today we couldn't get near it. Elizabeth V.

My gfather was a harness maker and killed by a co-worker sometime after 1910. At least that was the family story. I found him listed in a directory for 1900 at the correct address as the census (just double checking) but I have no other means of searching here from sunny Florida. I believe he owned his shop. Perhaps there would be a way to locate that property. Any hints? Thanks for your encouragement. I will find this guy eventually. I plan to drive up to NY in the spring and find something's out for myself, I hope. Regards, Barbara

Did send them 1900 census address plus date of marriage and anything else I could think of. The next time I ever have a child I will name him/her something outlandish like Xanadooooo. And I am over 65 so don't think that's going to happen. Thank you for your advice. Hope I hear soon. Barbara

Barbara, Have you checked to see who actually owned the property that the shop was located at??? Sometimes the land records can give you alot of info that most people might not think of looking for..
