Looking for information on my GGGgrandparents Bernard Murphy and Bridget (Biddy) Reilly.
Children I have found are:
Michael Murphy b 1863
MARY MURPHY - b 3 Mar 1865 Clones, Monaghan, Ireland
JOHN MURPHY - b 25 Jan 1867 Clones, Monaghan, Ireland
BRIDGET MURPHY - b 6 Mar 1868 , Monaghan, Ireland
JAMES MURPHY - b 27 Apr 1870 , Monaghan, Ireland
BERNARD MURPHY - b 9 Aug 1874 , Monaghan, Ireland
Annie Murphy - b 2 Jul 1877 Callowhill, Monaghan, Ireland
Twins;
Rose Murphy - b 20 Mar 1880 Callowhill, , Monaghan, Ireland
Patrick Murphy - b 20 Mar 1880 Callowhill, , Monaghan, Ireland
Can anyone tell me about Callowhill ? Is it part of Clones ?
I have records of 5 children, Mary, Anna. Bridget, Rose and Michael in Massachusetts after 1882.

Callowhill is about 11km South of Clones
see this google map link : http://www.rootschat.com/links/06fe/
I presume you have already seen the 1861 Griffiths Valuation entries for James, Philip & William Murphy in Callowhill
there is a Patrick Reilly listed in the same townland... see list of the occupants : http://www.rootschat.com/links/06ff/

Thank you both. I wasn't sure if Callowhill was a townland in Parish Clones - now I see it's in Parish Currin, in the Union of Clones. This clarification gives me a more specific place to look for records. I cannot tell from the births prior to 1877, that state only Monaghan or Clones, Monaghan, if they were in Clones = townland, Parish or if they meant Union  ? It's confusing geography, for sure.
The only Murphy I have uncovered who would have been alive in 1861 would be Bernard and I have no evidence yet that he was in Callowhill before 1877. I had not seen that Ask about Ireland website before, so thank you for that lead. I'll explore it further and perhaps find something in Griffith'ss after I get more a few more pieces.
Thank you,
Maureen

the Civil registrations (i.e. with dates from 1864 ) are indexed under registration districts, which are equivalent to Poor Law Unions. Theres a map of these here : http://www.rootschat.com/links/05d7/
Callowhill is in the PLU of Clones, so that's what will be listed on the Index
see the townland database at : www.seanruad.com
Parish records would list the Parish and sometimes the townland

Wow, thanks. That helps me understand a bit more. I just started genealogy in February, there are so many things to learn. It's a great education in so many more topics than just who my ancester's were. The community of people willing to help is incredible.
Thanks again.
Maureen

the Civil Parish of Currin equates to
RC Parish of Killeevan - earliest surviving record 1871 (NLI)
CofI parish of Currin (Rockcorry) - earliest surviving record 1810
there is also a CofI parish named Currin Drum..
