Dennis your site is fascinating!
I was born in St. Malachie. Often in the dead of
winter when my father decided that the horses
needed exercise we'ed end up on a sleigh ride to
Frampton. And no, I don't remember it as being fun.
Also, I still have vivid memories of how the summer
lightening flashes would illuminate the church and
houses of Frampton for us.
Congratulations on an excellent piece of work.
Linus

I have obtained a copy of the book: "Saint Malachie, d'hier a
aujourd hui, 1857 - 2007." It was recently published to
commemorate the 150th anniversary of the Parish of St.
Malachie. It is a great local history with information about
early Frampton settlement as well. It also includes a full copy
of "Histoire de la Paroisse de Saint Malachie" written by Fr.
Jules-Adrien Kirouac in 1909. Although much of it is in French,
there are many useful articles in English. There are also many
tables, maps and graphics of information that are easily
translated and understood. The authors had consulted with me
and I highly recommend it. There are still 93 copies available
for sale. The cost is $80.00 in Canadian currency. They are
available from "Caron Canadiana" bookstore, 104 Range 3, Saint-
Malachie, Quebec, G0R 3N0, Canada, phone #418-642-2503.

My GGGrandfather was John Thomas Sinnott. He was a nephew of
Martin Murphy Senior, of the Murphy-Townsend Party of 1844. Both
of these individuals were "Franpton Irish". They were from
County Wexford Ireland. John Thomas Sinnott and Martin Murphy
Jr. were married to the Bulger/Bolger sisters. John Sinnott was
married to Elizabeth Bulger. Martin Murphy Jr. was married to
Mary Bulger. John Thomas Sinnott was one of the Irish founders
of Milpitas, California.
If you have any information on Martin Murphy Sr. or John Thomas
Sinnott, I would be grateful and thank you for the wonderful
article on Frampton.

O'Connor and his wife Mary Kell. James O'Connor was the brother
of my GGGrandmother Anastasia O'Connor. So they are included in
most of my publications. Please e-mail me at dbmack11@aol.com

Do you know anything else about the James O'Connor mentioned?
I have been trying to find out all I can about him and his wife
Mary. I know James was born somewhere in Ireland, and Mary
somewhere in England. They married in Canada(somewhere) and had :
Elizabeth, Jane, Matthew, Thomas, Patrick, Margaret, Catherine,
and Anastasia. By 1860 they were in Santa Clara(San Jose) area
of CA.
I am trying to learn who James and Mary's parents and siblings
were. Mary's maiden name. Where and when Mary were born etc.
Thank you
Barbara

Dennis, I think you picked up on my Family History Center posting
some years ago. We went from there, but you have "picked up the
ball" and carried it farther and more professionally than I
imagined. Thank you for all my MURPHY data and detail!!!! I did
purchase your first book "ISLAND ROOTS" and found it to be
everything one could hope for. Researching your background, I
found a lot of common ground: you born and raised in
California,eagle scout with merit badge in forestry, educationa
nd career in Forestry related fields. I am a couple of Wars ahead
of you, WWII and Korea, but was Air Force also. Forestry degree
from Cal-Berkeley (from before the change of attitude in the 60's)
You have made a significan contribution to all for descendants
from FramptonIrish!!! Thank you for your HOURS and HOURS OF WORK.

I'll join the chorus; What a great site! Thanks so much. It is
so clear and packed with information.
It's been really tough finding any information about the part of
my family that lived in this general area and I'm pretty excited
to find such a great new starting point. We have Dohertys,
(Joseph + Lydia Ross);
and Lowers, (Henry + Sara Ann Weller).
Sound familiar anyone?

Trying to find my great-great grandfather's (John Doherty) origin
in Ireland and I found your site. He came from Londonderry, Co
Donegal and was married to Rebecca Duncan. I know he lived in
Frampton. My grandfather was born in St-Malachie and his father,
Thomas, in Frampton. It's like trying to find a needle in a
haystack but I will keep on searching, because I want to find my
Doherty's ancestors.
You have a very helpful site.

Belles recherches généalogiques. Good job.
Luke Foley married Bridget Culhane(Cullen?) on oct. 24 1848 at
Frampton. Luke is the brother of the grand-father (Michaël Foley)
of my grand-mother(Marie Grondin, daugther of Bernard Grondin and
Elizabeth Foley).
The father of Luke and Michaël(1826-1894) is William Foley(1785-
1854) who is buried at Saint-François-de-Beauce (St.Francis of
Beauce or Beauceville, QC) On december 4th 1854.
Michaël Foley was a farmer, a teacher and a mayor at Saint-
François-de-Beauce.
Who knowns about this Foley Family?

Great site. I am from the Murphy-Redmond line who settled in
Niellsville, WI. My now deceased grandmother Ruth (Murphy
Redmond) Moberg would speak of the Canadian connection often.
Many of the Murphy family and descendents are still in the area
in Clark County.

I was very impress by the beauty of that town of
Sawyerville. I have been the chief of police in
Sawyerville From De. 73 untill Feb. 78. I met some
good and beautiful people overthere and I will keep
a good souvenir from them. So I really hope that all
the people enjoyed and cherish that place. Thank
you for Frampton Irish to have gave me opportunity
to express myself in a few words. Thanks
