Surnames: O'Gara
Looking for any relatives of Patrick Eugene O'Gara born 1946 County Tyrone. His mother was about 16 when she had him and his father was an American sailor passing through town.

Would love to hear from anyone who recognizes his name. Mine was Joanne O'Gara.

I don't know if this is significant to you or even related, but my name is Alyssa Simons. I was adopted on April 6, 1984 and my birth mother's name was Joanne O'Gara. I know this would be a long shot, but if any of this sounds familiar to you and you would like to talk to me, my email address is asimons@ucsd.edu and I would really like to hear more about the family if it is any relation to me. Thank you for your time and good luck in your search.

To Joanne:
This may seem strange, but have you had any children, because i may be related to you, although it is probably a long shot. My birth mother's name was Joanne O'Gara, but I have never met her; I was adopted at birth. If you may know of any connections or have any information about my biological family, I would be very interested to know about them. Thanks for your help.

Alyssa,
My name is Jo Peet, my full maiden name is, Joanne Caterina O'Gara. Yes, I had a baby girl April 6, 1984, that I gave up for adoption. There's no doubt in my mind, or my heart that you are her.
I don't know what to say from here on. There is so much.
I'm embarressed to say that the incredible fear I have of being a huge disappointment to you, is makIng it difficult to know what to say at all. Then the even more paralysing fear that all you might be interseted in is facts etc. The thought that you may not be concerned with anything personal and not want to invest yourself enough to be disappointed is even worse.
Then as I read this I realise I'm beginning to ramble, because I don't know what to say. Now I'm all the more afraid, because without ever having met me, you'll know what a " neurotic head case " I am. I'm sorry. Please forgive my ineptness.
If you wish to contact me - jo.c.peet@gmail.com. I look forward to hearing from you.
Always,
Jo
