Wow! It seems lasses named Margaret Kilmurray take a liken to McLaughlin
lads. The Margaret Kilmurray that married my gg-grandfather Patrick
McLaughlin was born in Kings County now Offaly. I wish I knew where they
were married. The surname Kilmurray and its variations is quite uncommon
although theres always been quite a few in Offaly County.

For all listers who are researching names McLAUGHLIN KILMURRAY BURNS and
their variations, take a look at the history pages on my McLaughlin family
web site at http://the_mclaughlins.tripod.com

You may find some useful information there and hopefully some links.

Regards,
Grant
