Mina, because of the number of Mary McGraths and Peter Mathews in Ireland, I think you would need to get copies of both their death certs to see if any parents names are on them to narrow the search.I cannot find any record of Peter in Civil War.He appears in the 1850 Illinois census as a boarder in Peoria.I have found about 10 immigration records for Peter but again hard to narrow which is him.If you can get those certs and find anything let me know and I will look further.Also,do you know if Peter and Mary had any bros or sisters in Illinois? Let me know and I will try to help,Kim
