My father, John Joseph O’Neill, 91, really enjoyed receiving the book. He made a special point of asking me to thank you. I pointed out his two “appearances” in the book — one, when mentioned (with his late brother Emmett) as children of Francis O’Neill and Mary Loretto (O’Sullivan) O; the other time in a clipping as nephew of an uncle who passed away.

He was especially delighted to learn more about his great, great grandparents and  great grandparents, and to be reminded of the names of his grandparents.

My research on the O’Neills is going strong. I have found new family tree branches and descendants who are connected by DNA to Al.
