#8, Mary Magdalene was my maternal grandmother.
I remember: all but Sarah (d. 1912) and the ones who died in infancy, some only vaguely, as in remembering their names and that they came to visit my grandmother.
#2, “J.P.” and Mary Agnes Walsh had 7 children, the 3rd of whom was:
Genevieve A., b. 9/3/1915, Pittston, PA
who married Joseph “Joe” John Cambal, 12/31/1942 in Fort Knox, KY.
Their 3rd child “Mary Catherine” was born in Evanston, Ill on 5/17/1953. I have no marriage or children info for this person. Would that be you, Cathy?
P.S. JP was a VIP. You can probably get more info on him from the Sayre Historical Society.
So, we’re all related. “J.P.” was my Great Uncle. “Martin” was my ggg-grandfather. If they just hadn’t re-used the names so often, this would be a lot easier!
