During the month of March, I will be shining the light on
my Irish roots.
My grandmother Julia Walsh Slade and her half-sisters were close to their Glynn cousins, both geographically and emotionally. Their mother Mary Theresa Sheehan was first married to John Joseph Killeen whose sister Bridget Killeen married John Joseph Glynn in 1890. They were both born in County Limerick, Ireland but apparently met in New York City.
The Glynns operated a grocery and lived not far from Mary Theresa and family in Portsmouth, Virginia.

| Cousin Nell Glynn Probably 1919 |
 |
| Lillie Killeen with PROBABLY William Glynn and Margaret B. Glynn children of John Joseph Glynn and Bridget Killeen Glynn 1932 |
 |
| Bridget and John Joseph Glynn Nell Glynn 1931 |
 |
| Nell Glynn seated but others are not identified. This is not likely a family grouping as the number of people and supposed ages do not match the family tree. |
