The Pipes & Drums of the Ancient Order of
Hibernians, Division One, has been in existence
for over 32 years. It began in the Monroe, NY area
in 1976 by a handful of pipers. It has now grown to
approximately 42 members, along with a number of
students. The piping students are now being taught
by the one and only Jim Kelly (our former Pipe
Major); many of our current pipers were taught by
the late Bill Spencer. The snare drummers are
taught by John Mollahan, while the tenor
drummers are taught by Tenor Sergeant Kathryn
Collins.
Tom Fleming is our current Pipe Major; Bill
Hawkens is our Pipe Sergeant. Chris O'Canonico
is our Drum Sergeant and Drum Major is the one
and only Seamus Davis. (leading us up 5th
Avenue in the picture at top right).
Please check the rest of our website for more

parades, weddings, funerals and parties.
