I am searching for my fathers 2nd great grandparents John Leacy/Lacey and Mary McGrath. They are the parents of William Henry who came to Australia late 1860's. William was born in Horetown, Wexford 1841-45. I have found two possible records with their names and maybe have a daughter Elizabeth. William married Elizabeth Orange who was born in Fethard, Wexford abt 1843. I know nothing more of John and Mary unfortunately. My records are based on matches on Ancestry and MyHeritage, rather than facts. Hoping to find some clues please and thankyou. Regards Trish
