My dear grandmother and great aunt Kathyrn and Mary O'Grady were from Newport Tipperary. In the great adventure of their lives, as teen age girls came across the ocean to Ellis island NY about 1900. And thence to Colorado at the foot of the Rocky Mountains! They left behind a brother, James, who would send us letters with shamrocks in them, which I still have! I remember them well and miss them very much!
Lovely song lovely river
Are you from the area yourself?
