My Grandfather George Marchello was born in Gleeson the youngest member of a big Family. I was truly amazed to see my Great Uncle Bill and Great Aunt Josephine on the list of residents. Since my Grandpa past I have been very curios about his family that I never got a chance to know, thank you for this little connection I hope it leads to othter clues.

Gary,

Jennifer and I have John & Elizabeth Gleeson stories from one of you Aunt Nellie Gleeson Pidgeon's daughters and it would be great to add your mom's stories to them. Our g-grandfather William Ryan was John Gleeson's first cousin and John was his best man when he married in Globe.

Gary,

Jennifer let me know you put a message on the website. I was at the Gleeson Jail Celebration this year and met a woman who volunteered with your mom at the Pnx Botanical Garden. I sent a message to Evalyn but didn't hear back. Not sure if she ever got the note. Be sure and check out the Facebook page that Jen noted. You will find relatives there.

I wrote a book Irish Arizona and have a picture of John and Elizabeth in the book. Janice

Hey, Gary McDermott!
I was just trying to add your dad to the family tree yesterday but couldn't find his name. Is you mom working at the Botanical Garden?
email me - jpowers@amphi.com
Oh, and are you on Facebook? Or anyone else here? :) There's a group called "The Five Irishmen" for Gleeson, Holohan, Moloney, Murphy, and Ryan folks from the early AZ days.

I had a chance to visit Gleeson today after reading about it in a tourist brochure. I enjoyed reading the plaques that have been installed at the jail and the Martinez house. Especially interesting was the creative "Gleeson" sign that someone constructed and is visible off the road as you enter from Tombstone. What is it made of? Also, had a chance to visit and talk to the couple who used to live in Gleeson and have moved a couple of miles down the road with their snakeskin, craft and rock store.

I am very interested in contacting other Gleeson descendants. I am a great-grandchild of John D Gleeson, my mother being born Evalyn N Gleeson, daughter of John's son, Emmet Gleeson.

My mother and her sister Lily are not in touch with family outside of Arizona, my aunt made a trip to Ireland some years ago, but was unable to contact any family members there.

We used to visit Gleeson over the years. I remember when the arch still stood over the hospital entrance, and was stunned when a photo of it was used on the cover of assigned reading for school, title 'The Unvanquished' (actually a story about the old south)

My mother has compiled some stories of her youth which touch on some history of the family and John and Emmet Gleeson, who were epic figures of the time.

I have heard that John's brother had continued on to Alaska, but our family lost all touch with him

Please ask the site administrator to provide contact information so that we can communicate.

Gary
