My great-grandfather William Charles Brophy was baptised at Dysartmoon in 1867 or 1868. His father Peter married Johanna Hogan in Inistioge in 1865. The family emmigrated to New Zealand between 1873 and 1877. Peters father was named james as far as we know. Does anyone know of any related family on either the Brophy, or the Hogan side. Thank you, Andy Brophy.
