John Murphy (1720–1790) of Boherbue, Co. Cork — PJM's GGG-grandfather

Facts

Each fact shows how sure the archive is of it (0–100) and the sources it rests on.

Birth:

1720, County Cork 252026-05-11 — Email correspondence — Oliver Murphy (Beara-side researcher) to Luke Murphy (user)Oliver: '(1720-1790) of Boherbue'. Oliver Murphy's email of 11 May 2026 is the only source. It cites nothing for the generations above Seamus Mor, no Beara or Duhallow register reaches back this far, and other Ancestry-derived items in the same email proved wrong (the 1887 seaman Patrick, which Oliver withdrew; Michael's 1920 census age of 48 for a man born in 1864). 'Of Boherbue' is a residence, not necessarily a birthplace.

Death:

1790-05-09, County Cork 252026-05-11 — Email correspondence — Oliver Murphy (Beara-side researcher) to Luke Murphy (user)Oliver: 'died on the 9th May 1790'. An exact eighteenth-century date could come from a headstone, but none is cited. Single unsourced claim.

Residence:

County Cork
