of Brian Hughes who married Lizzie, sister of Sarah Byrnes (the subject of
these family records). Charles left for America in 1930 and married Rose Kirk
in 1932 in Manhattan NY. Rose was from Tatebane just over the Irish border near
Dundalk.
The paternal grandparents of Charles are now included, back to the Gollogly
and the Kirley family. The parents of Charles’ mother, Rose Grant, are now
included. Her father James Grant was from Carrigans townland - adjoining
Ummeracam; her mother was Bridget McVarry.
Gullion townland. Francis left for America in 1920 and in 1922 married Annie
McGovern in Lynn, Massachusetts. Annie and her family were from near Belcoo in
County Fermanagh on what later became the border between Ireland and the United
Kingdom. Annie’s siblings and grandparents have been added.
Alphonsus McGlade, born in 1882. John’s mother Ann McGinnis was the daughter of
Bartholomew McGinnis the original farmer in what later became the Hannaway
house in Levelamore.Ann McGinnis married John McGlade from the field next door (known later
as Mary McCoy’s then John Crawley’s).
In 1884 Ann (McGlade) now a widow left for America to join her son
Brendan and daughter Bridget McGlade. With her were here 6 remaining children,
including John Alphonsus and they settled in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania.
“John wanted to become a priest and started college at St. Vincent
Seminary. This school even today is way
out in the country. John would jump a train, probably to save money, to get to
school. One day he missed and lost the
lower part of both arms; the year was 1915.”
“The Knights of Columbus, Supreme Council awarded him a full
scholarship at Catholic University, in Washington DC. He graduated, June 11th, 1919 receiving a
degree of Bachelor of Laws. That year he was admitted to the Washington, PA
County Bar and to the Supreme Court of PA. At some point he retired to private
practice. To do this he had a remarkable
memory. I have a copy of his memorial service, he died in June, 1962”.
I am grateful to Gwen McGlade (Auel) for these memories of her
great-uncle John. Gwen, from Pittsburgh now retired in Arkansas has generously
shared photos of the McGlade’s from Levelamore in USA. Also of Bartholomew
McGinnis (born 1867) better known as Brother Constantine CFX.
There are now more feature stories relating to both families and where they lived.
