    from Ruthie Gallagher:
    "From what Aunt Elsie told me, the Gallagher's were rich when they came from Ireland to Canada and then into Peoria, IL. Devoted Catholics, and when Greatgrandpa--William James married Lugenia (not of Catholic faith), the church kicked them out and then then his family disowned him. Guess that is why we were poor."
