Family History Blog

Hi All!

Rather then filling up your email and sending huge files, I will upload all the family info here. For simplicity sake, I am going to start with the Mullen clan as we know it, the sisters Ella, Alice, Rita (Sr Suzanne) Clare, Agnes, Grace and their brother Frank, and work backwards from there. Most of this information has been compiled by others, I am merely the organizer/librarian. My mom did a lot of this research in the 1970s in Lowell, and I built upon it using Ancestry.com. Alice and Ella are responsible for keeping all the old photos and cemetery documentation. As this develops, I will also include the family stories around some of the cast of characters that have been handed down to us. Enjoy!
