Hi Leslie - My Grandma Agnes Irene Murphy Harder Norman was the youngest sister of John
Murphy Jr and Harriet Carroll.
My dad John F. Harder says his cousin gave him some info on the Murphy and Connor
side,which he recently forwarded to me. I'm assuming that cousin is you! I am
working on the line now and found some more info on John Murphys mom- Ann Orr. -think her
parents were John and Bridget rather than Robert and Margaret. According to 1880 census
data (John and Anna living with John Orr, F-in-L,and other kids of John and Bridget)....
After I document everything I will be in touch here if you'd like . I just can't
thankyou enough for all the research you did. Independantly I am able to confirm just
about all of it with the records here on
ancestry.com. I hope we can get in touch.
I've recently emailed Benedict Murphy's grandson, Jim Murphy, of West Winfield. I
live in Bellevue, NE now, but grew up in Utica.
Best wishes and hope to hear from you soon.
