Hi there
Daniel Brophy was my Great Grandfather, his son John was my Grandfather. I don't think we have traced back further than Patrick and Sarah on his side but we made more progress on Florences side. I've attached a photo of them.
Also, Hi Danny best wishes to you all in Isle of Man:-)

Hi there, in regards to Brophy, I'm looking for some information on the family... Not sure if it's the same one!

My dad can remember a Preston Brophy coming over to visit after my dads family moved from Dublin (Malahide to be precise) to Dudley in England.

Dad then mentioned one of the Brophys dying in a river.  Well, I found Michael Brophy died in 1956, after a drowning accident, he was from Malahide.  I can't find a Preston Brophy but a John Preston Brophy died in 2007, Malahide.

My dad is not sure whether the family were just really good friends with his family (good enough friends to warrent a visit over seas!)or whether there is a family link there.  Is this in connection to your Brophys?
