John Murphy Married mary Kennedy

 

 Aussie seeking  Murphy -Kennedy

John Murphy (abt 1788-?) M Mary Kennedy (abt 1791- 1879)
Location info we have - Cashel? Thurles, Clonmel and Tipperary.  I am sorry if I have joined the wrong group, being an Aussie I am not sure of how the areas work.

We are not sure if John and Mary also came to Australia, but as we have their death dates it is likely that they did. We are interested in finding more information on John and Mary.

Our direct ancestor
Son Patrick, (1810 - 1899) Md Ellen Staunton/Stanton(1815-91) 
Another son, James  1813. Md Sabina Staunton/Stanton

Patrick and James departed Cork on the Royal Saxon and arrived in Port Phillip Bay 17/7/1841. The sisters, Ellen and Sabina Staunton/Stanton arrived in Australia on The Forth. (Their mother was a Catherine Goode)

The brothers met the sisters and wed in Melbourne Australia.

Ellen Murphy  (1876-1911) married our grandfather William Casey (1866-1911)

After Patrick's death, Harriet M William Sheppard...we would love to be in touch with kin through marriage to catch up on our 2G grannie.
