lol Cardiff Irish,

I wonder if anyone is "interested?"

You have a problem here as the name does not appear in http://www.failteromhat.com/griffiths.php
Maybe the family moved to the area after 1854 when Griffiths Valuations were conducted in Co. Louth

All the Best,

Christopher

Hiya CI,

This site contains five McCormacks buried in Calvary Cemetry on the outskirts of Drogheda. http://www.interment.net/data/ireland/louth/calvary/index.htm

The number of McCormacks in Drogheda since 1870+ has certainly increased. I looked in the Eircom directory www.159.134.203.172/search.asp?source=Eircom and was amazed to see how many are there today. Many of them are probably descendents of those who arrived in the town in the late 1800s.

All the Best, Chris
