Hi Mary,
Your article: https://irishamerica.com/2019/05/striking-gold-transcontinental-railroad-turns-150/
In your research of the rail or recent experience have you encountered any Irish laborer descendants?
I work for Utah State University’s Special Collections and Archives and we are looking to interview such an individual.
Wishing you health and creativity!
Tess
