Sister Timothy Mullan, RSM 1888-1962
(Sister Regina Werntz, RSM, a Sister of Mercy working at Mercy Medical Center in Baltimore, Maryland, USA contacted me in 2012 enquiring about Isabella Mullan, a sister in this order who was born in Cambuslang and died in 1962. Sister Regina had been tasked to write a mini biography of Isabella and asked for my help in indentifying her family backgound. I have attached our series of emails which illustrate the sequence of events which sheds some light on Isabella and her family. The final email shows the eventual Bio).
