Special Acknowledgement:
I really do need to thank my cousin, Mary Beth, for looking me up. She painstakingly explained how we are related and gave me the wonderful (and much needed) information on the John Joseph O'Brien family.
Secondly, I would like to thank my cousin, Patricia Anne, for compiling a beautiful family tree for the descendants of John Joseph O'Brien and then sharing it with the rest of the family.
I would like to mention that Gregory Alan is the only cousin, which I talked
to in person, who was more than willing to show me the pictures of his children
that he had in his wallet.
