Happy Birthday Patrick

Happy Birthday Patrick again.. this doesn't mean you have two birthdays or that you are another year older immediately or that the first birthday wish is void..

it just means I've discovered something that might be interesting and is associated with your birth and the trail of events that followed.

you of course know the line "born of a noble birthright, carry on, carry on, carry on!"

you of course know your name.. Noble ! but do you know how deeply this is your name?

You were as you know , adopted by the family Nobles and you assumed their name! from the Loney name that was your birth name....

so yes you are now Patrick Noble!..... but did you know that you were the son of Patrick A Loney who was the son of Patrick George Loney who was the son of James Loney AND

Kathleen ! ! Yes your sister Kathleen was named after her, (and your) great grandmother!

and further.. did you know your great grandmothers maiden name ??/

Nolan ! she , and your great grandfather ( and grand father) were all born in Ireland...
now here is the meaning of the name Nolan !

Last Name nolan Irish (Leinster and Munster): Anglicized form of Gaelic Ó Nualláin ‘descendant of Nuallán’, a personal name representing a diminutive of nuall ‘famous’, ‘noble’. Dictionary of American Family Names, Oxford University Press, ISBN 0-19-508137-4

From Noble (Nolan) to Noble...

or might I add from Noble to Loney and right back to Noble!! Carry on, carry on, carry on!!

Now what do you think of that?!
