But that does not mean that I don't appreciate the queries. While the name is everywhere in Ireland (and all over Oz and America), we are busy trying to locate one Murphy that emigrated to the US prior to 1860. And we believe that she was from Queen's County (Laois), because it was in her Obituary. And we have no idea where the hack driver Crennan came from. That is the reason for these lists.

Jim: I really must apologize for asking about my Murphy family. I did not realize that things are now exclusive to a particular region and person. After 30years of searching I was under the impression that you just never know what might connect with another. Remember that we are all busy searching and this is not just exclusive for your line. Much luck in your searching for your family.
