Notes for Joseph Mac Sweeney
I have been informed by Esther Fidgeon grand-daughter of Joseph Mac Sweeney b. 1893 as per the following – ‘My Grandfather Joseph Sweeney ( as he removed the Mac) married a much younger lady my grandmother Elizabeth O’toole from Wicklow. They had 2 boys Joseph (my father) b 1937 d,1984, and John (known as Sean) died young adult in 1962. Margaret (Greta) Mac Sweeney was my godmother, she was a pianist in the Abbey theatre in Dublin. I only met her a few times as a child. I believe she had one child Pearl, emigrated to Canada. She raised 2 of her brothers (not sure which, because he and his wife were tragically killed) children named Patricia (Patsy but also known as Dr. Leoni Mac Sweeney) and Billy Mac Sweeney (Dublin)’.
It was rumoured around Glin that Mary O’ Longan, wife of Jeremiah Joseph Mc Sweeney emigrated to the U. S. A and took with her all the O’ Longán writings .
