He actually worked for the railroad. Both my grandmother and Uncle Jimmy lived with us. As a small child, I guess you could call them my playmates and they would tell me stories about Ireland to keep me amused. I have been looking for our Irish family for a very long time. After reading Kathleen's reply (and I am going to write her as well), I assume you are Mary? Last year, I began aggressively searching electronically for the McShane's of Drumlougher for a family outing we have every year in December. Thank you for the information on the graveyard (Cullyhanna). I am assuming the gravesite is located at St. Patrick's in Cullyhanna, and if I understood Kathleen's post correctly one of your sister's has passed away, so please accept my condolences. Rather than post, I will contact you and Kathleen on the email addresses you provided but have one question before I go. Did you know Sarah McNulty from Drumlougher and did any of the McNulty's come to America. I can't imagine my grandmother leaving Ireland for America at such a young age with just her sister.
