I'm looking for information on people of the names above from Co. Clare, Does anyone know how I could find out what part of Co Clare they came from?
They seem to have moved to England as a group. They were related but knew each other in Ireland as John Frawley worked for James Murphy who was a farmer. They were all in Co Clare in 1836 or 38 but were in Lancashire by the late 1840s. They probably moved due to the potato famine/farming problems.
Any information about Murphy's in Co Clare will be welcome.

Thanks,
Lorna
