Alright, you knew I WOULD! The "official" St Patrick's Day Thread!

[gldstwmn]

My family names are McNamara (no kidding) and Fox. I am 100% Irish, second generation in this country. My great uncle, Patrick Fox went down with the Titanic. He was coming back from visiting the family in Ireland. He was all of 22 years old, God rest his soul. My mother's family are from Sligo but there is a possibility that my father's family is from Ulster. I have done some genealogical research of that clan which seems to be pretty big. I think I have traced that part of the family back through Ellis Island and believe them to ALL be Catholics. Erin go Bragh! Long live Ireland!
