The Common Room / Re: James Ramsay Macdonald and William Channing Heron
« on: Wednesday 28 August 13 23:00 BST (UK)  »
I am related to Dora Murphy, mother of William Channing Heron.  Her parents were James and Margaret Murphy from Roscommon.  Would you have any further information on the Murphy family. James was a widow when he immigrated to Australia in 1853 with his children Sarah 17, Clara 15, Margaret 12, Andrew 10 and Dorah 8.
