Our Heritage
Dickie O'Neal's Irish Pub Restaurant is a family-owned business. Our heritage is Irish and is associated with the Gillespie Clan, Crossmolina, County Mayo, Ireland. In 1918, the Gillespie's (Michael, Rose Anna, Peter, and Mary) came to the United States, via the S.S. Columbia, and settled in Youngtown, Ohio. The Gillespie's welcomed their first American-born child, Rose, in 1924.
Until his death in 1963, Michael Gillespie supported his family in the new country, by working the steel mills of the Mahoning Valley, Youngstown, Ohio.
