Photo from Joanne: Catherine Regan, their son John, Martin O'Grady
Katherine Regan (Catherine?) and her sister Mary:
From John: "The attached is a photo of Grandma O'Grady and her sister Mary....the only reason I know that is because it is in moms writing on the back of the photo. The photo is dated August 7, 1904 or 1909 ....but that is not in moms writing."
From John, via Arlene: "To her best recollection grandma was one of 4 Regans. They were Katherine, Mary , John and Patrick.
Mary, the shorter sister in the photo , died at the age of 28 ...either of diphtheria or typhus ....if she did pass around 1918 at the age of 28 then she would have been born in 1890...as Grandma was born in 1886.....Mary would have been her younger sister .
Grandma married in 1910 and Uncle John was born in 1912, Dad in 1914, Aunt Kay in 1917 and Uncle Frank 1920."
