1914 - 1986:

After leaving school Willie started training to be a joiner. He didnot complete his training and took a job as a insurance agent.

After that worked in Scotland on the farms with his father-in-law NeilSweeney.

Willie and his wife Mary Sweeney lived with Mary's father inLoughanure in the early days of their marriage. After the birth oftheir first child Madge, Willie and Mary moved to the Nurse's Cottagein Bunbeg, which is on the road down to Bunbeg Harbour. They stayedthere for about two years during which time Willie was employed byPatrick Gallagher, no relation, as a ship builder. He returned to livein the old Sweeney house in Loughanure before the birth of theirsecond child, Neil, in July 1940. By then Mary's father had moved intothe "new" Sweeney family home. Willie was then employed in Insurance.

Up until Willie and his family emigrated to England in August 1947, hewould travel to either Scotland or England and spend the spring andsummer months earning money to send home to Mary in Ireland. It wasalways a sad time when Willie had to pack his bags when leaving home.

Their son Joseph was born in 1943 in Loughanure.

Willie could see no future in leaving his family behind in Irelandwhile he worked abroad, so in the summer of 1947 he and Mary decidedto leave their home in Ireland and emigrate with their family toEngland to a place called Higher Ferry, Saltney, Nr.
