	I would definately check Scotland with there being Scottish connections in the family already. She may have been born there but may not have stayed long enought to develop an accent. Sam x

	Is it possible she was born in Ireland or Scotland? Sam x

Member Since: January 2004 Posts: 0 Send Message	I have been trying to find my great grandmother's birth for a while but getting no where. She was Mary McGrath born 1892, daughter of Denis, a butcher. I have her marriage and death certificates but can't find a birth. I have sent for the certificates of every Mary born around that time through out the country and none have the correct father. Any suggestions?
