John McGrath/Bridget Harris in Kilglass, Co. Roscommon
I'm looking for more information (marriage or birth records or land records) on my ancestors John McGrath and Bridget Harris (b. 1834?). Bridget was the daughter of Mary McTeague Harris (b. 1810?) of Kilglass, Co. Roscommon, according to incriptions on Mary's headstone. We think John, Bridget, and many McGrath and Harris family members migrated to the US in or around 1850. We are unsure whether John and Bridget married in Ireland or the US. We have been trying to search Irish records ourselves but are still amateurs at Irish records. We did find a John and a Patrick McGrath in Co. Roscommon in Griffith's Valuation associated with a landowner named Thomas Morton, but wonder if that might have been too late to have been our ancestors. Mary McTeague Harris was married to John Harris b. perhaps 1815 - have found no evidence so far of this family in Roscommon. I would greatly appreciate any help! Thank you!
