Cork / Moore and Murray family from near Blarney, County Cork, Ireland
« on: Sunday 23 July 17 05:46 BST (UK)  »
Edward Murray and Bridget Murray nee Moore, farmers from the region near Blarney Castle, County Cork. They both died during the potato famine and their 3 remaining children moved to Lochgelly, Fife, Scotland. I'm looking for any information on the parents!
Thank-you!

Fife / Lochgelly or Cowdenbeath: Gorman, Reilly, Murray
« on: Wednesday 16 July 08 09:27 BST (UK)  »
Looking for the family of my grandmother, Bridget Murray Gorman or "Betty" , Born Dec. 30, 1898 Lochgelly, Scotland (or Cowdenbeath. She emigrated to Canada in 1924. Her family heritage was Irish Catholic, from County Cork on the maternal side.
Her mother's name was Reilly, I believe, (not sure of the spelling) and she died age 42 of dropsy. Bridget had a younger sister, "Peg" (Elizabeth) who emigrated to the Bronx, New York. Their father (Gorman) remarried and had at least 2 children with the second wife. 
I would like to learn what became of them, and also find the name of my great grandmother's family, to try and trace their Irish origins. Can anyone help or offer suggestions?
