John Murphy

John was born app 1864, no records found but most likely Riverstown, to Bridget Dyer and Farrell Murphy. He emigrated 1878 probably to New York, where he eventually married and had two daughters. He died March, 1908 at age 44. Parents Bridget and Farrell at some point made their way to Rooghan. There are two possible sisters, same parents, Mary, 1855 and Catherine, 1861. Mary married Michael Harrison, 1889 a Sooey. There is no further record of Catherine. Bridget died 1904 at St. Columba's. She is buried in the town cemetery. Farrell died 1902 unattended, but body was "found" by a  Patrick Murphy. There is also an Edward Murphy, about the same age as Farrel, who died in the same time frame and might be a relative. There are quite a few Murphys in Roogahn in 1901 but I can't connect the dots. Farrell is listed as a cottier and a shepherd in two records. 

I would like to see a birth or baptisaml record for John and to verify that the sisters are in fact, his sisters. I would also like to determine if his grandmother is Honora McDonough or Margaret Reilly. Bridget is born 1831 and it could be either. I see other records with McDonoughs and Dyers, so I think it is Honora but would love to know for sure.
