The photographs on this page were sent by Neil GIFFEY of Dodgeville, Wisconsin.
These family portraits of Neil's Irish ancestors were found in the attics of
Ripon, Fond du Lac County,
Wisconsin. Possible surnames include SULLIVAN ~ PIERCE ~ HOBEN ~ CAHILL and
ROCHE
(ROACH). In addition to the Wisconsin
connection, there are also family links to St. Catharines, Ontario,
Canada.
6/11/03 ~ Neil has recently identified the young woman in the tight fitting,
high necked black dress (below) as Kate CAHILL of St. Catherines, Ontario. The
other women may also be CAHILLs.
