Murphy (Ballinamona)
|
William Murphy was a son of Edmond Murphy of Ballinamona, Cashel, county Tipperary, and his wife Margaret Scully of Kilfeakle. He married Ellen, second daughter of Jeremiah Shine of Coolyhenan, county Limerick and was succeeded by his son, Lieutenant Colonel Edmond William Murphy, in 1890. William Murphy held land in the parishes of Hore Abbey, barony of Middlethird and Clogher, barony of Kilmanagh Lower, county Tipperary, in the mid 19th century. Over 280 acres of the Murphy estate in the baronies of Middlethird and Eliogarty was sold in the Encumbered Estates Court in March 157. It was purchased in trust by Mr. Fitzgerald. In the 1870s William Murphy of Ballinamona, Cashel, owned 856 acres in the county while Edmond W. Murphy of Woodford owned 298 acres. This family appear to be closely related to the Murphys of Ballymore.

''Burkes Irish Family Records'' states that Patrick Murphy was granted a lease of lands at Ballymore, Cashel, county Tipperary, as a reward for saving the life of one of King William's entourage. Patrick's lands in county Wexford had previously been confiscated by Cromwell. The representatives of his descendant Daniel Murphy, who died in Argentina in 1849 held land in the parish of Clonoulty, barony of Kilnamanagh Lower, at the time of Griffith's Valuation while Edmond Murphy held land in the parish of Ardmayle, barony of Middlethird. This family appear to be related to the Murphys of Ballinamona. In the 1870s Mrs Murphy of Ballymore Castle owned 3 acres and Edmond W. Murphy of Woodford owned 298 acres in county Tipperary.
