In the corner of Joanne Farrell's living room sits a box once owned
by her grandfather, Dr. John A. Farrell. The contents of the old
wooden box aided her in her search for the secrets of people long
past. Each item in the wooden time capsule gave her life new
meaning and purpose while courageously she wrote her first novel.
She found pride and a deep understanding of life while learning and
writing about the challenges faced by those who lived long ago. It
is a novel to pay tribute to the grandfather she never knew. Now,
she would like to share her novel of generations of Irish heritage
with the world. It is the story of the Irish coming to America
through exile, famine, and chain letters of hope. Once the Irish
came to America, they shared their dreams and gifts with the new
nation as well as the burdens of many American hardships. Each soul
in each generation gave it all, suffered great, and found the will
to survive when all odds were against them and every obstacle was
put in their path. Their lives changes America forever. A deeply
spiritual Christian, Farrell is a strong advocate for humane
policies and is active in many grassroots organizations and causes.
She is an avid songwriter, poet, guitarist, painter, hiker,
traveler, and mother of three. At the present, she resides in the
City of Rensselaer, N.Y. on the very same street as her great
grandparents did a century ago.
