U.S. Navcommsta Londonderry Alumni Association

Our Derry Brides

        Approximately thirty-percent of our Alumni Association Members married women from Northern Ireland. This listing, which currently contains 165 names of wives, surviving widows, and ex-wives, was created in the hopes it will aid in reuniting old friends from among this special group of ladies. Additionally, "Other Derry Girls" are listed at the end of this section.

    New names, or new information,  added to the list each week are highlighted in YELLOW.  Invalid e-mail addresses are highlighted in LAVENDER.

The listing is ordered by:
