Oldest living Irishwoman at 108 gives us exclusive interview

God bless you Margaret and many more, people like you made this country great

Here's to many more years, Margaret!

We Biddy Early's are of hardy stock. God Bless her! What an uplifting story. Thanks.

Thank You so..much for sharing this great story. I only wish she had the chance and desire to go back one time. I too imigrated at 16 from galway and go home as often as I can, my heart belongs there. God Bless you Margaret .

As the old Irish in New York used to say, "More power to you, Margaret!" ... My Irish mother, from prosperous East Clare, left Ireland for political reasons but also fondly remembered all those dances in New York, including Hudson River cruises. Those greenhorns had a marvelous time, providing each other with happiness and new freedoms. ... They were quite hardy lot. My mother was able to do algebra problems in her head on her deathbed (93), and dictated her obituary so no one would "exaggerate." She remained snappy to the end if you dared to patronize her. On one side of the bed she talked to the spirit visitors, on the other talked in detail about mundane things.

I'm with sheiladd. . .

God bless Margaret and Margie. Thank you for sharing this warm hearted story.

Margaret you look fantastic. I wish you the best of everything that is good for the rest of your life. God Bless You.

Life is too hard to have to live that long.... I don't care to live past 73

Marvelous! Absolutely M A R V E L O U S ! ! !

Go Girl!!

All my best to Maggie Kelly. Amazing for her to have been able witness to most of the 20TH Century. I only have one person in my genealogy research who got close to Maggie's age, 98. This person was not Irish in her ancestry as far as I know, though I have not gotten too far back with her paternal ancestry so there is some hope she had Irish ancestry.
