Individual Details
John MURPHY
(Abt 28 Aug 1859 - 27 May 1929)
Sponsors at John's christening were Patrick Young and Mary Young.
According to family sources John was disabled. I wonder if his disability was the result of the accident he had when he was about six years old when he got caught in an agricultural machine. His eldest brother, William, managed to release him but he (i.e. William) lost a hand in the process.
John, who became a farmer, never married. He died aged 69 of "acute parenchymatous nephritis, 15 months" and "cardiac failure", according to his death record. The informant on the certificate was Patrick Ryan of Garryhill, a nephew.
