Dad's grandfather, R.T. O'Gara. The resemblance between him, and dad's father, and dad, are certainly noticeable!

Dad's father Peter Francis O'Gara. He died, when dad was 17 I believe. He hung himself. It was Dad who found him, on Christmas morning. Dad was often melancholy at Christmas. An experience like that marks you forever.

A newspaper cover featuring dad's parents. The correction in the next picture says this is Peter Francis and Catherine McGrin, but says they're dad's grandparents. I assume that's wrong. Added info: My sister Catherine says dad always said her name begins with a "C" to differentiate hers from his mom, whose name he said began with a "K". Since the newspaper articles at right spell it "Catherine" with a "C", I don't know what's right, so it's for future generations to answer.

And the article inside, with errors. ...And the corrections to the article.

Mom's dad, Ray Higgins, in a silly ad for his Gambles store. He's wearing a wig, or a mop perhaps.
