Gorbals
The Gorbals is an area of east Glasgow, south of the River Clyde. It is best known for its Irish community. It was this area where our McMurrin ancestors lived, worked and died. I went on Friday to see where Joseph McMurrin, our great-great-great grandfather was buried. These are some things I saw along the way.

ReplyDeleteI need to know more about how you are related to Joseph McMurrin, since he is also my great great great grandfather. And I need more contact with my Irish/Scottish relatives. You can contact me at mrmcmath@gmail.com.
