Thank you so much Marie. I am looking for anything relating to the Murphy family who lived in Cattle Market Street, Douglas. Peter Murphy (my g.grandfather) left the Island in 1882/3 aged 20 leaving behind parents and siblings. As my Irish g.g.grandparents Peter and Ann (Farrel) were married on the Island, I presume that their offspring would have attended the Catholic school. I do have a few birth dates, etc. but not to hand at the moment. Could I contact you when I have something more concrete for you to go on?. Further to this, I have a connection to the Chatel family through my Leece line. Perhaps being from France the Chatel kids may have also attended St. Mary's.
Thanks again and best wishes,
Annette.
