Fathers O’Donnell and OLMC

Hi,

Just happened on  this article (in response to the article concerning Our Lady of Mount Carmel in a previous post).   Rev  John O’Donnell (died 1946) was my grand uncle. He was ordained in Thurles seminary (Ireland) in 1898 for what was known as the “American Mission.” This meant that, as a poor kid, his fees were paid by an American bishop. He had a younger brother, Rev Edmund O’Donnell (died 1953), who also ministered in Iowa. Two of his three sisters became nuns. The third, my late grand mother, also wanted to join an order but was persuaded not too. A narrow escape for me!! I have photo of him taken in front of his Church and also post card pictures of what I presume is Mount Carmel Church which are dated 1929 (if interested)

Regards,
