• Notes

  He must have emigrated to the US before 1840 since his daughter Catharine was born in NH in 1841 according to the 1860 Census. However, there is no record of his family in the 1850 Census of Portsmouth. A John Murphy, age 24, arrived from Ireland at the Port of Boston on Sep 10, 1835. [Bob H]
