DUNPHY Family History
Donahue (Donogh, O Donnchadh, Dunphy). At first there were O Donoghue septs in Cork and Kerry, where Ross Castle was their fortress on Lough Lene, Kilarney. Other septs moved up to Galway, Kilkenny and Cavan, where their descendants were usually Donohue. They claim descent from a King of Munster who fought Clontarf in 1014. In Kerry their chieftain was O Dononghue Mor of Ross Castle, while the other was O Dononghue of the Glens, also in Kerry. A 12th century O Donoghue founded the beautiful Jerpoint Abbey in Co. Kilkenny.Who have we missed?

George Joseph Dunphy, possibly born 1887, Waterford. In 1912 George was living at 32 Morley Terrace, Waterford, and I believe he was working as a clerk. Thankyou in advance for any help, Rosemary
George Joseph Dunphy, I think born about 1887, and married to Lily Pigott
My father’s family has been very hard to trace. I believe one of his father’s brother moved from the New York area to BC. I think the family might have come to the U.S. through Canada, possibly Prince Edward Island. My grandfather’s name was Michael Edward Dunfee. I realize that the spelling was probably changed.
Hello, my family comes from County Tyrone. And my grandfather and great-uncle(s) settles in Nova Scotia. I and my family as well as my cousins and there families live in British Columbia Canada.
