To all, I've an odd question. I've been so busy tracking the burial places of my ancestors here, that I've never thought about where people in Eyeries could be buried. Is Kilcatherine Cemetery the only possibility? I've also been searching for the parents of Michael Murphy from Butte Montana who married Mary Murphy in Butte. Mary was daughter of Patrick Murphy who was wed to Maggie Sullivan. The parents are Jeremiah Murphy and Nora Sullivan of Glengariff. We have Riobard's Eyeries book, but don't know if Glengariff is included or is in another of his books. I'm just amazed that we miraculously have found any leads.

Hi all especially Riobard if you are around. I would like to get information of any Sullivan' or Harrington's living in Leadville especially during the years between 1875 and 1920 or so. If you know they lived on 5th Avenue even better. ~~C Sullivan
After posting this, I bumped into Riobard's listing of the parish of Adrigole and Glengariff, and found Jeremiah and Nora Sullivan Murphy. I'll pass the information on to my new found Murphy cousin so that she can eventually do the research there. In the process of digging through the archives, I also found an old posting from Larry McCarthy listing a Mary J. Murphy (who married John O'Neill) in Colorado as the oldest sibling in our family John (Jack) Murphy and Mary Harrington Murphy. That would solve a puzzle that I've been working on for years. I have an oral history tale from Maggie Murphy Holland that she and her sister came to Butte in 1880 and that she went to visit her married sister in Leadville in 1882, where she met and married Michael Holland. I suspect that this sister might be the woman on the left in the Montana couple that I posted a while back. Mr. McCarthy lists his source of Mary J.'s placement in our family as Riobard's Eyeries book, but my copy doesn't mention her at all. She could fit into the roster as the eldest child, but when I went to contact Mr. McCarthy in Plains, Montana at his ranch called Beara West, I discovered that he passed on last year, so don't have a way of verifying his information. I plan on sending a condolescence card and a copy of the photograph to his family and hope for some verification. I had assumed that Catherine (Kate) Murphy might be the married sister, but can't find anything on her even though I have searched the 1880 census for all women with that first name and all the marriage records that I can find. I understand that with the burning of the Lake County courthouse, that there may be missing records. So I'm excited about the possibility that we might have tracked down another set of descendants.
