He married Thirza Elizabeth ANDREWS 15 November 1875 at Devonport ENGLAND. Parents - Michael MURPHY and Margaret HOLDEN (Siblings unknown) I am currently following a lead which indicates that they possibly immigrated to Rhode Island, U.S. Edward joined the British Army (13 October 1863) at the age of 18. Most of his service was in British India. He immigrated to New Zealand in 1886. I am hoping that I can find some information through his birth date since MURPHY is such a common name in Wexford. Can anyone help me? ==== WEXFORD Mailing List ==== DO NOT post virus warnings, test messages, chain letters, political announcements, current events, items for sale, personal messages, etc.
