Helen Sullivan Culyer to Judge Sweeney; Nov 14, 1963
I'm rereading your 1975 letter, I see that your Aunt
Mary Collins was fond of Uncle Dan - he was a
charmer in looks and wit - had recalled that one of
the Sullivans had lived with your mother for awhile.
That might have been my Grandfather Florence who I
was told lived with his sister when he first came to
the U.S." (Helen Culyer to Judge Sweeney; July 11th,
19xx)
"In your
letter you mention Daniel Sullivan and Charles
Sullivan. When I was a young boy they used to
come here summers. My Aunt Mary had a close
contact with them. My Aunt lived in Alabama at
one time and I can remember her telling me, and I
believe it was the Spanish American War, Dan
Sullivan was stationed there and used to come to her
home. He apparently got a promotion and she
had to sew on the insignia of his rank, which she
promptly did, but put them on backwards. She
was always fond of Dan. (Michael
E. Sweeney to Helen Sullivan Culyer; May 9, 1975)
"My father
was Peter Arthur, his brothers Charles, Michael,
Florence and Daniel, the first two brothers, all
handsome. Their father was Florence, their
Uncle, Michael Emmett, whose sons were Emmett and
Earl. ... They were great people our
forbearers. It followed that their
descendents inherited noble standards as well as the
good health. I remember my uncles especially
Uncle Charlie ... so proud of." (Helen
Sullivan Culyer to Judge Sweeney; May 14, 1975)
(Mary
Sweeney MacDonald Collins)
Lived in the south during the Spanish American
War fever epidemic and nursed Captain D.P.
Sullivan back to health. He was in the
69th regimen.(Margaret
Harrington, Oct 12 1956)
(Mary
Sweeney MacDonald Collins)
For years she lived in Alabama as the wife of
MacDonald . Mary was a wonderful woman.
As both her husbands had money, she was able to
educate her nieces and nephews. The girls
graduated from Skidmore; John is a doctor in
Washington D.C., and Michael is a lawyer here.
(Margaret
Harrington to Helen Culyer, July 20 1953)
