my uncle in Rochester was named John Dowd, and my gpa in Ireland was of same name... Uncle John died about 6-8 years ago, was plaster contractor, wife Mary, two sons and two daughters... dunno middle initials
gpa Dowd was from south of Dublin in farm country, loved to see Galway, married Margaret Kelley, died of diabetes at age 55 or so... rumored to have a secret second family in NYC area
about five years ago, my mother got strange call from someone claiming to be from John Sr's secret second family... could you be from this gaggle? ... no follow thru, no forward phone number, dispptmt
John Sr the gpa had son John, daughters in order from oldest Caroline, Maude, MaryAnn (now my mother Maureen), then brat CHristine... Maude died in 1952 of leukemia... Caroline lived near Uncle John in Rochester, now cons rich men in Palm Beach Florida... Chris lives in London still
some familiar? what a gas if we are related rumors persist that gpa Dowd spent a lot of time in NYC and might have had some secret honey... a family would not surprise me
