About

This site covers the family history of my late father, George Thomas Walsh, from his birth on July 9, 1925, in Boston, Massachusetts, to the date of his passing on March 2, 2012, in Boise, Idaho, and to my own retirement and settling down in Boise in 2015.  It is a work in progress, wherein I upload family photos and documents and add links, captions, information and comments when available and appropriate, and whenever more notable events are remembered.

I welcome comments and more photos and information as well as any corrections. I probably dated some photos with imprecision (i.e, with a circa label), or not at all.

The first two sections are open to the public, and the last two are “protected” with a password available to friends and family.
