Great Grandma Susan Clark


                                                          Bronx NY circa 1928

               R Ann (Anne Annie) Elizabeth Mulvey McCartney holding Catherine (Rena Kitty) McCartney

My mother Frances called her little sister Rena because their Uncle by marriage to their Auntie Kate Mulvey, Gerard Quiros, was from Cuba.  He called baby Catherine "Catarina"  and since Frances was only two and half years old at the time and Rena was what she could pronounce,  Rena it was.  Later Catherine's husband Edward Bart knick-named her Kitty.
