Our Breslin family origin is Ireland and Latvia. My father Jim Breslin Sr. met my mother Lija after WWII when she was displaced from Latvia and living near Dublin. They emigrated to Canada and married in Toronto in 1951. There they raised us four children: Brian, Maura, Paul and Jim. My brother Jim has a web page: click here.

We have many relatives living in the Dublin area from my fathers side of the family. My mothers sister and her family live in the Seattle area.
