Hi, Can anyone offer any information on Murphy families in Falkirk/Camelon,, they were Tailors at first but most of decendants moved into foundry work. One was later noted as an innkeeper at the Union Lock 16 Inn in later life. They came from the North of Ireland and settled in Falkirk and surrounding area circa 1740( George), son James, Falkirk 1784 - 1878 ( Tailor), married Margaret Hart (Falkirk) 1795 - 1871, children were: Helen 1818 = Thomas Docharty c1815, no family found, as yet. George 1819 - 1893 = Mary Smith c 1821 - 1900, 9 children noted. Elisabeth 1822, nothing found. John 1824 - 1880 = Agnes Adam 1817 - 1872, my direct line, 8 children, noted so far. James 1826, (Died as Child?), no firm information. James 1832 = Margaret McNair 1834 - 1916, 8 children noted, so far. Margaret 1839, nothing found.
Have some limited information on the married children and some of the decendants of my own direct line but would welcome any help in expanding my grandmother Agnes-Adams Murphy's 1884 - 1952, (Camelon/Falkirk - Anderston/Glasgow) side of the family. Managed to go back in the Hart maternal side (White) of family to 1600's but main interest is descendants of all the Murphy's. Any Murphy descendants still in the area, who can increase my knowledge, would be a great boon. Yours hopefully, Dunmac. P.S. Family have connection to : Robertson, ,Scott, Hardie, Forrester, Grindlay, Cupples, Hendry, Grinton, Etc. in Stirlingshire & Kippen.
