Record of
McGrath – Fanning family made by Winifred McGrath.” Then there is a
line “the Parents of our Father, were Philip McGrath of Coolkill and
Winifred Ryan of Rathcannon.” This makes Winifred daughter of
Patrick McGrath and Bridget Fanning the author of this paper. It
shows her line from her parents back to Dennis McGrath.

Also Daniel Ryan and Mary Davern children.
