Murphy's Emerald Idyll, A Lakefront Home in Rome,Maine

About Our Family Research


My current driving interest is in genealogy. The names I am researching are given in order back from the present. On my father's side we have: Murphy, Kelly, Hennessey, Connell and Tanner. These names were all located in the Crookstown area, 20 miles west of Cork City. The period is late 1800's.
On my mother's side we have: McGlinchey, Whalen , and
McDonald. I have no place to start here, just "of Ireland."
I think the McGlinchey name may be from the north.
The Murphys, McGlincheys and Whalens who made it to the U.S.
settled in the area of Cambridge, Somerville and Boston, in Mass.
There are many more graves to visit for their input.
My other major interest in in humor. I have dozens of floppies full of jokes eagerly awaiting their chance to tell their stories. As I grow in web page skills I expect to draw upon my little friends for assistance.
Here is an example. Pardon the formatting. Apparently web site owners cannot control formatting.

Sure It Helps...

I noticed my husband standing on the bathroom scale,
sucking in his ample stomach.
Thinking he was trying to weigh less with this maneuver, I
quipped, "I don't think that is going to help much, hon."
"Sure it does," he said. "How else can I can see the numbers?"
