A Piece of Thurles History Step back in time with this incredible video from 1988, where 99-year-old Mary Gleason (originally Mary Gleeson) shares her journey from Thurles to New York in 1911. From working as a barmaid in Ireland to earning just $30 a month as a housekeeper in NYC, Mary’s story is a powerful glimpse into the Irish immigrant experience. On her voyage to America aboard the White Star Line’s Cedric, she played traditional Irish music for fellow passengers, where she also met her future husband! A true piece of history from a Thurles native who lived to 106 years old. Watch, listen and share this amazing story!
