Denis MURPHY of Bandon Road, Cork, Shoemaker 1805

CorkCork City (Cork)

Hello,

Seeking any information on a Denis MURPHY, occupation Shoemaker, in a 1805 Directory he was listed as being at Bandon Road, in Cork

My great great great great grandfather is a Denis Murphy, a shoemaker, born in Ireland about 1774, his wife's name is Ellen, do not know her maiden name, but she was born in Ireland about 1783, only one child of their's is know of a son also named Denis Murphy born in Ireland about 1824

My Denis and Ellen along with son Denis junior are in England by 1841, but trying to find any information about Denis senior

I am in Australia and finding it difficult to trace, any help very much appreciated, thank you

Hello again!

The only place you might find records would be at www.irishgenealogy.ie  There were three RC churches with records back to the 18th century: St. Finbarr's, St. Peter and Paul's and St. Mary's. There are gaps, however, with all three parishes. This link to the St. Mary's register http://registers.nli.ie/parishes/0041  also allows you to switch to the other parishes in Cork city but first try www.irishgenealogy.ie

Let me know if you have questions.
