It says in your family tree... which to me means more than direct ancestor.
And I mean the other Fr. Murphy, who led the final charge at the battle of Arklow.

I know, but Fr. Michael Murphy is the main man! 

Fr. John has his statue (with the Croppy Boy) in Enniscorthy.
Fr. Michael has his statue in Arklow.

When Googling the family tree of Phil Collins, I found many of his ancestors were from Norfolk or Suffolk, and he descends from the Scarfe family of Blo Norton in Suffolk, as do I. My ancestor Judith Scarfe born 1725 is the sister of one of his ancestors.

My great-aunt was married to Queen Victoria's butler.  Does that count?
