Hi Alan, I noticed your last name of McGRATH and my ggreat grandfather Phillip GORMAN was born in Ireland which I have been unable to find out where 1-August-1834 and was the son of James GORMAN and Catherine McGRATH. I know nothing about them and was wondering if there might be a connection. The 1900 US Federal Census shows that Phillip GORMAN came to the USA in 1856 and was a Naturalized citizen and owned his farm.
