His father’s name is Ronald. Greg was raised in a Catholic family.
Greg has stated:
My grandfather, James Murphy, was born and raised in Cork, so I have a hereditary love of Ireland, you might say. Both of my parents have Irish ancestry, so I’m half-Irish.
He has also said, “My mother’s grandfather was born in Greece.”
Greg’s paternal grandfather was Edward Dulli (the son of Morris/Maurice Dowling and Anna Dulli). Edward was born in Ohio. Morris was the son of Mark Dowling, who was Irish, and of Mary Anne Harmon, who had Irish ancestry. Anna was born in Alsace-Lorraine, the daughter of Herman Dulli and Margaret Barbara.
