John McGrath and Jane Gethings

Dear Reaching Out,

we arekeen to fnd out more aboutmy great-grandparents John McGrath and Jane Gethings whoare thought to have come to England from County Waterford in about 1870. I have not been able to find any records of them or their marriage in on-line records before this date.

The details I have are:

- John McGrath - b. c. 1841 in Ireland - d. 05/06/1901 London - a Coachman

- Jane McGrath nee Gethings - b. c. 1847 in Ireland - d. 27/10/1897 London.

Their children were:

- Rose b. c. 1869, Ireland

- Mary Jane b. c. 1871, London

- William John b. 22/09/1878 Winkton, Christchurch, Hampshire - my grandfather.

I hope the combination of the McGrath and Gethings names will be fairly unusual.

We'd be very grateful for anyclues you may have about where they grew up and were married.

Yours faithfully,

Gregory McGrath
