Beara friends, My profusest apologies for my weird repeat of messages. My isp said call us while it's happening and then maybe we can figure it out. I'm just praying that there is no repeat.

I found the same as Bill - one message from one person came 6 or more times. Otherwise all is, as usual, fine - thank you, Bill.

Hi Susan, all, We had an instance of a list member sending multiple messages due to some sort of glitch with her e-mail program this weekend. As far as I know, that's the only recent incident. Was there another within the last few weeks?

Hi all, Just in this past week I seem to be receiving the same message about 3 or more times in a row from the Beara list. Anybody else experience this? Not sure what's happening...wondering if it is something wrong with my computer, or something happening at rootsweb? I do appreciate all you send, but repeat messages are a little much. Thanks. Susan

Hello, I'm a neighbour of Riobard's and now a 15-year resident and new Irish citizen. I thought maybe some of you would be interested in this link. I know Daniel Quillen who has written a number of books on genealogy and offers research tips on his blog www.essentialgenealogy.com/blog. I wish you all good luck in your searching, Sue On 10 March 2013 18:52, Jean Clemons <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi All Listers, > > Can anyone tell me if "Curly" is has another given name? > > Thank you for your time and trouble. > > Jean > > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to > [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes > in the subject and the body of the message > -- *Sue*

The Christian name is Cornelius. This name is seen often in my family tree.

Hi All Listers, Can anyone tell me if "Curly" is has another given name? Thank you for your time and trouble. Jean

Bette, We have a John Murphy and a James Murphy who I haven't found yet. James was born in April 1872 and John on March 5, 1873 (thank you Riobard!). I found a John Murphy in the Montana marriage records who had parents who were John (Jack) Murphy and Mary Harrington, but his birth records is ten years off. So I'm still digging. There is a family story from Maggie Murphy Holland that two brothers became barristers (if she is for sure a sister and not a cousin of my great grandmother, Nora Murphy Harrington). There was a John Murphy who was a lawyer in Montana and I'm just trying to prove or disprove his relationship to our group. I have a photo of a man who is clearly a Murphy in Butte from what looks like the 1890s to early 1900s. A newspaper article from 1901 indicates that Nora's family and women friends were asking the county attorney to pursue murder charges against my great grandfather, Phil J. Harrington. And other than one of those brothers, there were no other family members there. Nora's brother, Patrick, had died in an explosion in the mine six months before she died. And Maggie Murphy Holland was outside of Grand Junction Colorado by that point. After coming through Leadville, Co, Eureka, UT and then acquiring the ranch at Kannah Creek. So I'm suspecting a lawyer brother somewhere in Montana and am digging to prove or disprove it. Theresa > Kersten, who is your mysterious MURPHY? My dad was a MURPHY.

Kersten, who is your mysterious MURPHY? My dad was a MURPHY. Bette -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, March 06, 2013 11:52 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [BEARA] (no subject) Friends on the Beara list, I wanted to mention that for those of you who are wanting marriage certificates for relatives who were married in Montana, that the Mormon church now has those records online for free. If you go to the Family Search website (www.familysearch.org) and instead of entering a name in the top part of the page, instead go to the bottom of the page to the collections and select United States and then Montana. It will list all the Montana collections and there are two for the marriage records. Pick the one with images and then you can do a surname search. It solves the problem of which county did they get married in as it covers all counties. In Butte, until about 1894, many people went to Helena to get married. It was an exhausting task as I was surprised at how many records I had to collect for my batch of Harringtons and Murphys, but found them all. And am trying to break through the brick wall of my mystery Murphy man in Butte. The marriage records are particularly helpful as they list the parent's names and can help to piece the whole picture together. Happy hunting!

Friends on the Beara list, I wanted to mention that for those of you who are wanting marriage certificates for relatives who were married in Montana, that the Mormon church now has those records online for free. If you go to the Family Search website (www.familysearch.org) and instead of entering a name in the top part of the page, instead go to the bottom of the page to the collections and select United States and then Montana. It will list all the Montana collections and there are two for the marriage records. Pick the one with images and then you can do a surname search. It solves the problem of which county did they get married in as it covers all counties. In Butte, until about 1894, many people went to Helena to get married. It was an exhausting task as I was surprised at how many records I had to collect for my batch of Harringtons and Murphys, but found them all. And am trying to break through the brick wall of my mystery Murphy man in Butte. The marriage records are particularly helpful as they list the parent's names and can help to piece the whole picture together. Happy hunting!
