Kilkenny / john murphy castle gardens kilkenny ireland
« on: Thursday 05 November 15 12:04 GMT (UK) »Hello I'm posting this message because i am hoping that someone may have information on a John Murphy from Castle Gardens Kilkenny Ireland.
I have only just discovered him through his brother James Murphy probate and will ,dated 1908. It read that John was from Kilkenny
It seems to me that John Murphy remained in Ireland while his family immigrated to Melbourne Australia possibly in
1850. Don't know whether he had family or when he died.
The family consisted of Patrick Murphy,his wife Margaret Murphy nee O'Keefe born 1803 castle gardens Kilkenny Ireland died Melbourne 1887. Children James ,Mary, Bridget, Annie ,Ellen and of cause John who remained in Ireland
IT seems that i am the only person researching this family.
Thanks Claire
