Looking for some info on John P Murray

Meath

I am looking for my Irish family members. Does anyone out there find this familiar?

John P.Murray b. 1854 Co.Meath, Married Bridget M Barry. Children were ,Catherine, Michael G, Patrick F ,John, Margaret. They moved to St.Helens area in England around mid to late 1880's and then off to Boston Ma.USA in 1894.
they were related to the Gaffney family (and still are). Other names related, Catherine Travers, Patrick Barry,Ellen Murphy.

If you have any info I would love to hear from you.

Thanks,

Patrick

Patrick:

I found a marriage index record on a pay site that shows an 1877 marriage between a John Murray and a Bridget Murray registered in the Dublin  North district. It was listed in Volume 12 page 476. Since Meath is not far from Dublin, this is likely the correct record. You can write to the GRO www.groireland.ie fill out their form and provide the year, registration district and volume and page number. Cost around 4 euros. You can also search www.familysearch.org (free site) for the birth registration info for the children and then go to the GRO.
