  I have not seen Kilmaley Magazine I am in San Diego USA.  I tracked the Murphys via Mary Murphy b1827 thus no baptism record, her parents are James Murphy and Bridget O'Brien.  Mary Murphy marries John Slavin and returns to Kinturk from Tulla to have first child James Slavin 1846 (Clare Library has as Flavin, Clare Heritage as Slavin) looking at microfilm its Slavin. there is also an error saying mother is Mary O'Brien vice Murphy. There is only on Slavin in Clare at this time.
  1861 Wigan England census has two Murphy families in house of Bridget O'Brien some maybe half siblings as 3 are buried in same grave.  There are other Murphys in Wigan that trace back to Kilmaley and most everyone lives next to each other on Adelaide Street.
  1871 Wigan census has a Hanora McGuane b1853 in house of Bridget Conway aka Bridget Murphy daughter of James Murphy and Bridget O'Brien and wife of John Conway married 1844 Snugville KIlmaley Co Clare.

Ellen married James Hally of Clogharden Ardfinnan

James Hally is my relative,  He married Ellen ODonnell 17 Sep 1872 St Mary's Clonmel.
father Andrew is not listed as dead (but I did not check orig) Ellen lives in Shanballard.
wit. Catherine ODonnell and John Quinn.  When I was in Ireland we went to Clerihan looking
for more Hallys as family seemed to think we were from there, but there were no Hallys in Church records
thus it must have been ODonnell side.  Hallys lived in Cloghardeen Ardfinnan but some of family attended
church in Clonmel.
