Next, an article with a photo of one of Andrew's daughters, who works for New Jersey Transit:

At 11:14am on August 23, 2009, Drew Smith said…: Margaret, you may find the following details helpful. Andrew T. Gill was 39 at the time of his death in the train crash, and was living at 170 East River Road in Rumson, New Jersey. He was employed as a lawyer by the New York firm of Hallett, Bardusch, and Scheminger, located at 120 Broadway. Together with Ruth, they had 5 children, the oldest of which was 8. (I'll keep looking to see if I locate anything else relevant to the family.)

My third Great Grandmother was Mary Bonar born c1810, unfortunately I don't know whereabouts in Ireland she was born. Mary married James Curry and had at least two issue: Catherine born c1835 and Hannah born c1840 both born Ireland. Catherine and Hannah both ended up in Glasgow, Scotland.
I'm guessing their religion to be Catholic as they married into Catholic families.
Best wishes,
Sue (Australia)
