Hi List, I thought I would try my names again since it has been quite awhile. I still searching for information on Bryan McGrath, born 12/03/1815 in Co. Mayo. His parents were Michael and Bridgett McGrath. Bryan's wife was Mary ?? from Co. Galway, born on 12/18/1829. At some point (before 1850) they arrived in Portsmouth, Virginia. They may have stayed with a brother, Laurence McGrath and sister, Bridgett Boyle. Bryan and Mary had at least 9 children all born in Portsmouth, Virginia. They were Catholics. I haven't been able to find out anything about their lives in Ireland or when they immigrated. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Vicki
