Story

Long story.

I came to visit my great-great-uncle who served in the Civil War! I found him via your historian’s blog post. Who knew, and how beautiful…

Three generations ago, my entire Irish family made Brooklyn their home. After a brief diversion to Ohio, most of us are back in NYC – including the original immigrants who are now in Green-Wood, up near Battle Hill.

I’ve been a history buff for years, and I found my true passion – Civil War nurses – while walking through the Green-Wood grounds. Thanks, and see you out there!

I’ve always loved visiting cemeteries, and Green-Wood is the tops!
