Let Me Tell You Who I Am - Dirty Gerty (1941)



"Gertrude Muireann Vaughn was Born in Barna, Galway, Ireland on October 12, 1919 and was the youngest of 8 children (4 boys & 4 girls) to parents Patrick Vaughn and Shauna McGinney. Her Father was a professional drunk, gambler, whore master, wifebeater and in his spare time he worked on the Irish shipping docks. Her Mother was a professional pain in the ass, ballbuster, child ass whooper, drinker and in her spare time she was a home maker and part time worker at the old sewing mill. Mostly sewing patches on IRA Militia members jackets with inspirational slogans like "English blood is best drunk by the litre" and "It's Timely we K*** those slimly limies"
Her parents were true Irish Republican patriots. Until her Father showed up drunk to set fire to a near by English run pub, when he accidently ended up shooting himself the left foot and setting himself on fire simultaneously , he did manage to set 3 British soldiers on fire blowing the pottant alcoholic breathe through the fire on the soldiers. He was quickly apprehended though and confessed everything to the British military in great detail before they even asked him his name. The British military let him go and Patrick fled Ireland with his family to America only leaving his oldest son behind to look after the house just in case they wanted to come back one day if once the heat died down (they never came back). The Family arrive on elis island on January 21, 1920 where the family stayed in a boarding house with 3 other Irish immigrant families. When Gerty came to the US she was only 3 months old and her birth certificate last name was changed to Vaughns due to a spelling error. The family ended up moving when Gerty was 10 years old to Chicago because her started working for Al Capone distributing illegal Irish whiskey to Chicago ports that her mother still had ties to people back in Ireland to ship it over. When Gerty was 17 she dropped out of high school to start work at a hotel maid service job and quickly found out she was offered more money for sex than cleaning and that was the start of Gerty's first true passion for Money.
