Hello again Dorothy, I am from Newburgh, all my life. Grew up on the 4th Ward. We had a big family, four brother and four sisters. Maybe you knew some of my family. Thelma 77 RoseMary 75 thomas 73 Anita 71, Ruth 69, David died 1938, George 66 and John 55. They all left Newburgh except Ruth an myself. I am doing a family history myself, if you ever run across a George McGrath in your search please let me know. I live on Meadow street now, town of Newburgh, two houses from Bonnie. I don,t know of any McGraths that taught in St Patricks. My ggfather was killed in the Civil War 1864 at age 21 but he married my ggmother RoseMary McCleary on Dec 16,1861 in Newburgh, he left my gfather also George McGrath and a son Robert H> who died at age 2, 1865. Don,t know anything abt his family. I will keep my eye,s open for your ggfather. George gmcg62@aol.com

Hi George, Some of my McVeigh relatives grew up in the 4th ward, my uncle Jim who drove the trolley and later on the bus to Orange Lake. His wife was Mamie Doulin. He had three children Helen, Rita and Francis(Mickey). None of the names of your sisters seem to ring a bell, perhaps because they were a lot younger than me. I haven't heard from Bonnie in years, but would love to get in touch with her again. My brother Bob's wife meets her and her daughter Margo now and then. I don't live in Newburgh any more ( left about 25 yrs ago.) What have you found out about your ancestors so far? Did they live in Newburgh? If so try the Newburgh Library, they have City directories that will show you where they lived and their occupation. I will keep an eye out for any McGraths. If I know a little more about them it will be easier.
