Happy St Patty's Day!
 |
| This is a copy of the 1920 census. At the bottom is the surname Dale. Cecil Dale is my great grandpa. Listed under him is Thelma, my grandma Bradbury, and Thomas A, my Great Great grandpa. I found this census doing my genealogy about 6 years ago and was shocked to find that my great grandpa Thomas had listed Ireland as the birth place of his mother and father. I was also shocked to find that he had listed their primary language as Irish....hahaha! Of course that instantly meant St Patty's Day was taken to a whole new level. |
After church on St Patty's Day we threw off our church clothes and put on the green. Then we started cooking our Irish feast of Irish Stew, Colcannon (basically cheesy mashed potatoes and cabbage), and apple barley pudding. Of course we have to have some O'douls as well...oh don't judge, I know you're drinking your Martinellis. We invited some friends over to enjoy this Irish feast and celebrate our legacy and the joy of genealogy.
