In case you are not aware there is a CREETH family website http://www.your-family-history.com/c/creeth-family-history.php The reason I did a Google search for the name is that at one time I know there was a business by the same name in Seaview, Isle of Wight. I believe the Westridge Builders (Ball family) bought them out but still maintained the name for a while. Arising out of my search I found that they might have a connection in Ireland http://www.dublin1850.com/dublin1850/xdubdir17.html There are two of the CREETH name in this site where you can view an inscription. http://www.bob-sinton.com/headstones/richhill/names.php?id=3 There are also miscellaneous CREETH Monuments listed here http://search.freefind.com/find.html?id=35651711&pid=r&mode=ALL&n=0&query=Creeth Some names listed here with a reference to emigration http://www.ancestryireland.com/data/directory/Directory.pdf I think you might find more. Hope these help.
