Looking for any information on MURPHY and RING families from Macroom.  Edmond Murphy and Mary Ring, married 23 Feb 1867 at the Parish of Kilnamartyra, sponsors: Denis Murphy and Patrick Ring.  They were my 3rd great grandparents.  Does the church have these records?  How can I obtain a copy or further information?

Your help is greatly appreciated!

  • Early RC parish registers often dont include father's name, but a civil record from the GRO should, along with occupations which also dont usually feature on RC records.

    The likely match for Mary Ring and Edward/Edmond Murphy appears on the BMD Index - registration district Macroom, year 1867.  volume 5 page 640

    You can use the references to order a research cert costing €4 from the GRO

  • FamilySearch has an extract of the civil record, which includes some of the details from a civil record, but ommits the occupations, places of residence for the bride & groom, name of the priest & church, witnesses etc :

    Groom  Edmond Murphy
    Age : 29   (c1838)
    Bride : Mary Ring
    Age 28 (c1839)
    Marriage Date : 23 Feb 1867
    Location : Macroom, Co. Cork,
    Father of the Groom : Cornelius Murphy
    Father of the Bride : William Ring
    Reference ID : 640

    Note the reference is the same as the page number given in the BMD INdex entry.
