Remembrance Sunday: Nearly 1,000 Irish died serving US army in World War I – It’s so weird to stumble across something written about yourself, but I just found this about some research I did about a decade ago. It pertains to Irish soldiers who lost their lives in WWI serving for America. I’ll bet a lot more could be found on the topic now! #genealogy #VeteransDay
Thinking of my grandfather, James V Shields, today and pulled up this letter he wrote home from France during WWI. Never spoke of his service in later days, so feel very fortunate to have this trace. He’s the fellow standing in the middle in the photo. #VeteransDay
