MURPHY/MAHONEY CONNECTION

[guardian]

Looking for info regarding Dowlais families with surnames MURPHY and MAHONEY.
JAMES MURPHY and wife Ellen had 3 daughters born in Ireland, names were CATHERINE/KATE, JOHANNA (sometimes known as HANNAH and ELLEN. The family left Ireland approx 1875 and their 3 sons were born in Dowlais - JOHN b 1876, MICHAEL b 1879 and JAMES b 1882.
The eldest daughter Kate married MICHAEL MAHONEY b 1864 Dowlais and their family consisted of ELLEN b 1891, HANNAH b 1893, JEREMIAH b 1896 and JAMES b 1898. The families at this time were living in 10 Union St, Dowlais. Wondered if any descendants of these families stil live in Merthyr.
At this point I'm not sure if Ellen Murphy and her brothers' ever married.

The Murphy family - Johannah married Daniel HARRINGTON, who is my greatgrand father in 1890 in Merthyr. In the 1901 Census they had moved to live in Beaufort Ebbw Vale. Ellen was born 24/04/1872, My family tree is on the Ancestry web site and details more info. Hope this assists
