'Headstone of Jeremiah McCarthy, my great-grandfather. This photo is interesting to me because it was a postcard. Come to find out that was the way photos were preserved. It led me to find the headstone in 2006. The cemetery is in a town called Rosscarbery. On that visit I visited the parish priest and obtained a baptismal certificate of my grandfather Michael which allowed me to become an Irish citizen.'
