« on: Monday 25 January 10 19:23 GMT (UK) »
My greatgrandparents were Michael Rossiter and Margaret Rossiter nee Mc grath.They were married at Duncannon Wexford in 1864. Are there any other
Rossiters or Mc Graths  who know anything about this family. I have hit a brick wall and would appreciate any information. hoping somebody can help me
Thanks

There's only about 10 miles between Duncannon and Duncormick in Co Wexford.  It is normal for a couple to marry in the bride's parish.  If you take a look at

http://www.igp-web.com/IGPArchives/ire/wexford/cemeteries/duncormick.txt

there are several Rossiter families mentioned.  From the approximate birth date for your Michael, you may be able to narrow down any which MAY be related.  Then proceed to check out these families.   This might give you a starting point.

Cheers

Hi LH,
I have just looked at that site and there are quite a few Mc Grath's
buried there as well.
Many thanks for that info. you have given me a new lead.
Much appreciated
