John Murphy born C1839 in Castleconnell Limerick

Roger,thank you for that. The churches you mention they are in Limerick county? And would they have church records there? Murf.

 

 

Hello Murf:  I may have some information about John Murphy from Castleconnell but I also have questions.  Your post says his father was named Michael.  Could his father’s name actually be Patrick?  I am a distant relative of the Murphy clan from Castleconnell and have been trying to properly place your John Muphy, deceased in 1914 in NZ, in the family tree.  John had two sons, James & Mathew who both had families in NZ.  There are dna links from both these branches of Murphy’s In NZ back to the Murphy Clan who presently live in Castleconnell.  My great grandfather

Timothy Murphy is also from Castleconnell and immigrated to Iowa USA in the 1850’s.  Ted crowley Phoenix AZ ted.crowley@hotmail.com

Hello Gents,

 

Saw this chat and would also like to know more about the Murphys from Castleconnell! I am also tracing the family branches. 

I am a descendant of the John Murphy and Anne Roseingrave clan from NZ. Anne Roseingrave was born in 1849 in Gort, Galway, Ireland, and emigrated with her family to NZ in 1860. John Murphy was born in Castleconnell, Limerick in 1839. I am not sure when John emigrated to NZ – but from looking at your comments, he could have gone with either with his whole family or just his brother James around 1864/8? John and Anne may have married around the 1870s, had 10 children and lived in Ashburton, NZ.

Keen to know more about John Murphy of Castleconnell and his parents and ancestors. I am very keen to try and trace back to the time of the Siege of Limmerck during the 1600s

Any information you have would be fantastic.

 

Kind regards,

Adam

 

By the way: I also have found some good information on the ancient Murphy Clans and branches from a book called 'The Murphy Family, by Micael Walter Downs'
