I am reposting my interests for information, help and guidance!! *John FARRELL born Bandon 5 December 1819, he left to go to sea in 1836 and ended up in Northumberland as a coastguard. His father was John FARRELL (soldier sometime during his life) mother ? *John FARRELL niece Catherine?Caroline McGRAH (or variations on that spelling) born in Ireland in around 1830 and married John Collins born in Ireland, this couple ended up in Greenwich, Kent. now London! Any advice on how to trace back further in Ireland would be much appreciated. Cindy Dorset
