Hi,

I am searching for the marriage of Edward Griffin and Agnes Rose Dorrian. They were the parents of my GM Agnes Griffin (Griffith) married to Michael Brogan (1908) Mt Charles. 

Thanks

Jason,

Looking forward to hearing from you. I see that you are from the Marg Dorrian/John Harley line. She was a sister to my GGM Rose Dorrian/Griffith/Griffin. That is about all I know of the family.

Thanks
