It's looking promising that Philip Murphy is connected, so I've made a note of him. I see he and Mary McCarty both say born Kerry, whereas elsewhere Mary says born Kilkenny which is where their son is saying he's born 1861.
I do wish peeps would stick to one birthplace (preferably the right one).
But I'm very grateful to all who have contributed to this thread - I've found out more in less than a week here than I did in the previous 10+ years!
