Catherine McGrath wife of Alexander Mulhern 1869

[Lorraine333]

Hi everyone, I’ve searched on Scottish people etc etc, and I can find nothing on Alexander Mulherns wife ( Catherine McGrath ) born I think 1869
Alexander Mulhern 1863 Lanark -1948

I’ve come to another dead end

If you go to Scotlands People and search for the marriage of Alexander and Catherine, it will pop up. You will be able to view it for 6 credits and it should provide details of both sets of their parents.

Further to my post #3

When giving the baptism of Catherine in 1866, Ireland is a little vague. After doing further research it would appear James and Lavinia had another child, Patrick, born 3 years later. His record gives a more zoomed in location.

Name - Patrick McGrath
Birth Date - 7 Feb 1869, Ballymena, Antrim, Ireland
Father's Name - James McGrath
Mother's Name - Lavina Mooney

Name - Patrick McGrath
Baptism date - 09 Feb 1869, Kirkinriola, Antrim, Ireland
Father - James McGrath
Mother's last name Mooney

Ballymena to Kirkinriola is about 3 miles.

By the way, your local Library should be able to provide free access to FMP as well as the British Newspaper Archive. Worth investigating.

Worth a try .. I could ask there .. they may have my dads side as Shropshire, but the most I’m researching for my side is Manchester .. unsure what or how much info they hold.

Always worth asking. The Library staff will also be able to tell you what is available locally.

As soon as I can get my car sorted I will drive into town .. something for me to do in the Xmas holls as I work in a school. I can’t wait to retire so I can spend more time researching ️
