Hi Carol,the only way you will find out more is by trying to see the parish records & see if Timothy & Catherine Murphy had any more children christen,maybe some kind soul that lives locally could do a look up for you,starting at ST Michael's where Jeremiah was christen.Sorry I can't help you out.Just abit of info into what the area was like Portarlington had the railway link in 1847,if they did come from Durrow in the early 1800's there was a brickworks & carpet factory there ,later the carpet factory was relocated to Abbeyleix & it is said they made carpets which were fitted for the Titanic!!! By the way I'm sure you will already know Portarlington is now in Co Laois which was once called Queen's Co------- once again sorry I can't help you out---Nipy

Ronnie Matthews has a home page that includes his e-mail address. Ronnie is the local Historian in Portarlington and may have information about the Ryan's.
Ronnie Matthews, Portarlington will get his page.
