Berehaven Murphys

122 sources.

All Murphy material from the Beara peninsula / Berehaven area, whether or not the specific Murphy is identified as family. Kept broad: famine-era, Land League-era, and later material all qualify. Aughabrack-specific or Coulagh-specific narrowing happens via the places: field, not by spawning a narrower thread.
