I am trying to find out if my grandfather Lawrence McGrath, had his fishing boat commandeered after 1916 in Gloucester, Mass.
and if he was drafted into the Navy or Coast Guard. I do not know the name of the boat but there is a possibIlity it was the

I am researching the McGrath's, Doyle's, Keating's, Kehoe's and Hearn's of Rocky Bay, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. My great grandfather, Patrick McGrath, and Edward McGrath are brothers. The Keatings, McGrath's and Doyles were neighbours in 1836 and the children of these families married and formed large families of their own. I have a lot of info to exchange. My wife and I are vacationing in Florida right now but I check my e-mail periodically. We return home 6 May.
