Murphy's of Clones & Callowhill, Monaghan

[hallmark]

No point in me looking at C of I if they were RC.

They would be Roman Catholic.  

Can you write directly to the Parishes.  I have a request in with Tipperary Family Research on another branch of my family. Is there a similar entity in Monaghan?  I've read they don't have their records online yet.
 I am in the United States, so getting to the National Library is still a wish list item.

You can write to the parishes, but can't say if they will reply. some do, some do not.

Am mainly doing C of I this week, sorry.

Thank you for your help. You've given me some leads to follow and some understanding of the records I have found so far. I'll research avenues to the records in Parish Killeeven and Callowhill.

Hope you have a successful research trip,
Maureen

From what I can make out Drumully church covers Currin and Galloon with marriages from 1864 - 1881 and baptisms 1845 - 1881. These are in PRONI Film; Mic/1D/15 with Clones marriages 1821 - 1867 Baptisms 1848 - 1866 on flm Mic/1D/21.

There's 3 possible churches for Kileevan area; Kileevan, Kilseery and Aghabog...but not sure what years are covered there.

I am searching for my great grandparents, Matthew Murphy and Rose Rudden Murphy of Callowhill, Monaghan.  I have established this connection through the records of the 1880 U.S. Census, Roman Catholic Baptism Registers of Baltimore Archdiocese, and the GRO 1867 Birth Record of my grandmother's brother.

Assuming that Callowhill is the dwelling place of my great-grandparents [1867 Birth Record], which Roman Catholic Parrish or Parrishes should I search for records of the Baptism of my grandmother, Susan Murphy [1863] and the marriage of my great-grandparents, Matthew Murphy and Rose Rudden?

I have read all the emails in this thread and hope that several of the contributors will get in touch with me.

Well Callowhill is in Currin parish so I'd presume Scotshouse would be their church.

Have you looked on 1901 and 1911 census for them?  http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/search/  then you just put Callowhill in for Townland Monaghan for county and you can look under 1911 then change to 1901 under Census year.

This will get you everyone in Callowhill, you could just put Murphy in under surname if you want.
