I am very happy to announce that I am writing a new book about the Irish of Waterbury! My partner will be John Wiehn, the director of the Prospect Library in Connecticut. Our work will be published by The History Press in their American Heritage series, with a proposed release date of Saint Patrick’s Day, next year. John and I will be doing a scanning session this coming Monday, May 6, at the Ancient Order of Hibernians Hall in Waterbury from 3 to 7 pm. Come to 91 Golden Hill Street between those hours if you are interested in being part of our project. We are seeking your great images and stories about your Irish and Irish-American ancestors who found their way to the former Brass Capital of the World and made their mark upon it!

Sherry is my sister she has been raving about your work. Are we related ????
Sherry and I have been communicating off list, comparing a photo I have which might include relatives of yours. It suggests cousin relationships, I think. If so, we likely are, back a few generations!
Has your new book come out yet? I know my dad would love it.
Thank you, Kimberly. I am about to make a post about the upcoming book and a talk, very soon, in New Haven. Wishing you well. Janet
