Good morrow all! I have been trying to get my parents to take a look back into their families, but to little avail. I couldn't get a lot out of them because they honestly did not know but here is a little of what I could salvage of my family's history.
My mother's great-grandmother on her mother's side, Alice Gascoinge, who I was named for, was one of the first in my famliy to come to America, Connecticut in particular. Her father was from Scotland, her mother England which was where good ol' Alice came from.
On my mother's father's side, her grandmother, Helen Dunne, was 100% Irish, but there is not much more info.
While my dad is a nice mix of Italian, Irish, Polish, French and even Native American, on his mother's side came the Ryans from County Carlow. Some distant members of my family still visit Carlow every few years.
I know, not a lot for a college student to ponder is it?! :lol:
