Note

circa 1980

From grandson Pete Romeo, 2025: About 45 years ago, my father, John Francis Romeo, received a letter from Paddy and David Haughton of Waterford, Ireland, asking if Mary Haughton was his mother. He answered yes she was and they began a long correspondence. Eventually my parents visited them several times (they were in their late 70's at the time).
Paddy & David lived in their family's pub and (as I understand the story) left the pub to my father after they died. My father then turned the pub over to a family that had been helping Paddy and David (again this is how I heard the story).
