Some five years ago Coleen Lucachick from Minnesota was reading an article in The Catholic Digest (USA) when she saw a photograph of a young Irish girl that was a dead ringer for her daughter Christine. She kept the magazine and took it along when she visited Ireland in 2000. Enquiring in the Visitor Center in Clonmacnois she was told that the Irish girl was Marion Corcoran daughter of Adain and Etna . They met up with the Corcorans and have kept in contact ever since.
For Christmas this year the Lucachick family are revisiting Ireland for ten days and naturally have met up with the Corcoran family once again. The daughter Christine is now thirteen and her sisters Hilary and Laurie, brother Glenn and parents Gary and Coleen have all come along for the trip. Great to see them back in Shannonbridge.
