i returned to my erstwhile abode to find that the new shower curtain i gave money to my brother to purchase does not match the curtains or tiles, neither of which have unicorns on them.

my dad sent me a picture of a 1911 census page showing my great-great-grandfather michael's family, including my 7 year old great-grandfather michael. my grandfather, father, and brother are all michael. i emailed back i wonder what great-great-great-grandfather's name was? and my dad said "pete." LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
― spite n ease (harbl), Thursday, 19 December 2019 01:08 (four years ago) link
well the run had to end somewhere
bet he was peadar rly tho
my dads sister got the same census page printed for them all when it came available a few years back and he opened it in the house i was renting in dublin at the time. the family address for the census was three doors away!
anyway in the same trip home they discovered (tho apparently twas an open secret on the island) that the child in that census- my granda- was left to them by his mother as she was sent to mericay in disgrace. he was raised by his uncle and wife as their own, they being childless themselves.
when they moved back home and he inherited the land, the cousins (otherwise in line) never got over it and scuff up the right-of-way to the pier to this very day.
anyway, michaels all the way up in my lot too, until a pj who ran the smallest licensed pub in the country on the island in the late 1800's according to the sign still in the shed down home last i checked.

he was probably not pete, that was my dad's dadjoke. it said michael the elder was a "shopkeeper." i wonder what the shop was. it was limerick, they must have moved at some point because i think my grandfather was from clare. we gotta do a thing like they do on pbs where they showed bernie sanders and larry david were cousins and find out we are cousins but that isn't so hard in ireland i guess, the west virginia of countries
