Does anyone know of a lady who had the surname Geragthy who lived at a convent in Limerick?

The lady lived there from 6 yrs  to 16yrs old from 1936 . She went to England at 24 yrs old, in 1954 and  her  name was either:

Alice, Mary or Pauline

Or,it could have been a combination of all three.

This is most important to me therefore I would be very grateful for any information.

Tnak you for any help no matter how little I may recieve.

  • The convent was St Vincents it was an industrial school actually in Limerick. The lady in question went to London not to a specific settled place  as she went to where the work was. But she was in Dulwich, Camden , Tulse Hill and other areas of the capital. I know her mother was called Alice who had an ailment and was hospitalised. I am louth to tell you any more  at this point as It is a very delicate matter. I have only been made aware of this information in the last week. This is the first source I have used. Oh, Mary (Pauline, Alice) had a sister who lived in England for a year in Bournemouth with her mothers sister.

    Sorry I can't give much more info but mine is limited and I have to be careful with the info I do impart, as it may cause problems at a later date.

    Best Wishes
