Biography[]

Betty was born in Ireland, the oldest of twelve children. There was never enough food to eat.[1] Betty later moved to New York to make more money. In New York, she met her future husband, Henry Reagan. After getting married, she and Henry had one child before Francis, Peter, who died of Leukemia at the age of 18 months. After Frank was born, contrary to typical Irish-Catholic families, they chose not to have any more children. She also made Henry promise never to tell Frank, because they didn't want him missing someone he never knew. Henry broke that promise, feeling that it was more important to tell the whole truth. The Reagan family's Sunday family dinners are her legacy of having overcome the struggle of childhood poverty.

At the age of 72, Betty got sick and died, possibly from cancer. She is buried alongside her daughter-in-law, Mary, and her grandson, Joe Reagan.

Betty has a brother named John, who grew up to become a loan shark and he attacked both Henry and his partner and Henry won. Henry then told John never to come near his family again.
