[Genealib] Fiction and genealogy

[Daly, Marie]

Albany author William Joseph Kennedy wrote a series of novels covering
several generations of a fictional Irish-American Phelan family. Among
his works are Quinn's Book, Ironweed, Very Old Bones and The Flaming
Corsage. In one of his novels, he even included a genealogical chart.
