And furthermore my Irish American heritage consists of people dying in the famine, and then coming over here possibly to Grosse Isle..not sure...my Irish American heritage consists of knowing not until a couple of years ago even the names of my ancestors or where they were from. It consists of people working on the canals and then on the railroads and freezing to death and going insane from the hardships.

Any further comments on my Irish American heritage or lack thereof? mg
