My husband's gr gr grandparents were Timothy and Catherine (Kevane) Murphy from Maumagarane/Mam An Gharrain, on the Dingle Pennisula near Minard. They are on the 1911 census in Killenagh, Ballinvoher, Kerry. Many of their children emigrated to America. Children in order of birth: Mary (married Michael Daley in Ireland and I believed stayed in Ireland, although children emigrated), John, Julia, Daniel, Ellen/Nellie, Timothy, Thomas T. , Maurice, Bridget and James.
Thomas (my husband's gr grandfather) and his brother John both married sisters Ellen and Margaret Sullivan from Derrymihin West, Killaconenagh on the Beara Pennisula, Castletown Berehaven. They both married in Lowell, Massachusetts. Julia married a Thomas Evans also in Lowell, MA, Ellen/Nellie married John P. Ryan in Lowell, Briget married John J. Moran. Murphy, such a common surname that I can't believe I was able to trace them to Dingle, my favorite place in all of Ireland (Minard Castle area). Anyone know of these Murphy's/Kevane/Cavanaugh's, or Daley's?
Thank you.
