Joseph P Murphy died 28th Feb 1954 592 Old Sth Head Rd, Dover Heights NSW.Occupation Dentist
Married in 1927 in Canterbury NSW to Irene McSweeney 1881-1959

Do not know Josephs date of birth or origins but suspect he may have been born in Co Cork Ireland.

Thank you for any information.

This seems to be an obit to a brother of Joseph (brother of Joseph MURPHY, dentist, Sydney).  He is said to be son of Mr and Mrs Luke MURPHY of Sale, Gippsland, Victoria.  Quite a lot of info on family.
