I'm not familiar with a pet name in English for a great-grandmother. Wanda, I’d go with Sin-seanmháthair - if what you’re asking is about the Irish language.

My mother was Floy McHarg (daughter of Lilly Blanche and Robert McHarg). I remember her talking about Sue Gerard and the Columbia Tribune when I was a child (I am 69 now). I think a lot of my ancestors are buried in the Olivet christian Church cemetary in Harg. I think they did come from Ireland in the first place (Meghara). Anyway, I enjoyed your piece on Harg.
