Beth and I have been trying to track you down for months. I replied to you directly using the email address you posted. I hope I didn't overwhelm you with information. I have some photos that Mgr Murphy took when he lived in the US. I believe quite a few of them are of Creavens. I sent some to you. I'll send the rest soon. I'd love to see the photo you have from the 1880s or any other old photos you may have. Photos were mostly taken in studios in Ireland (by the general public) until the middle of the 1900s probably due to poverty. The few cameras that existed here were owned by the rich (who were scarce) and the Irish who emigrated (when they returned home to visit), like Mgr Murphy. As a result, most old photos I've found are studio ones or those taken by Fr. Martin (the name we used for Mgr. Murphy). I hope we stay in touch. I certainly intend to keep in contact. I'd love to meet you if you visit Ireland. Regards, Tim Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
