I am trying to get some information on my grandmother Ellie Murphy. She is listed as living at #20 Upper Mill Lane in the 1911 census. She was 7 years old at the time. Her father Bartholemew Murphy (36), mother Mary An(27), Maggie (2)and Dan (5 months)also lived in the house. Her mother’s maiden name was Gleeson and the family were from Tullig. I would love to hear from anyone who could help me in my search for further.

Joanne O’Riordan, 16, from Millstreet, Co Cork, underwent a 12-hour operation just over three weeks ago to insert a steel rod in her spine — but she still intends to be on the sideline at the Gaelic Grounds in Limerick as the Rebels face Clare.
Doctors were so astonished at the speedy recovery of the plucky teen that they told her mother she should qualify for a Guinness Book of Records entry” … Read the full article in today’s Sunday Independent

RECENT DEATHS: Cathal O’Connor, Bishopstown
When walking in the Town Park today a kind lady who is a dedicated follower of our website shared a discovery she had made regarding the two random pictures in the “From the Archives” section which appear on the right of all pages on millstreet.ie (as in the example – right). She thought (as I did) that it was only possible to view just the two pictures when you clicked upon them … but now we share our discovery that if you click upon the highlighted caption underneath the pictures this will result in the opening of a complete file of pics from which the particular picture was taken – thus giving a wonderful selection of pics instead of just the one! Many thanks to [read more …] “Discovery!”
Family pet ‘Higgins’ went missing this morning from his home in Drishanebeg, and he hasn’t been seen since. The neighbours have been checked but no luck finding him yet 🙁
To make matters worse he’s only being minded for the week and his owners are on their way home from the States tomorrow morning (Saturday).
He’s important to them and our hope is that we will locate him before midday tomorrow (Saturday).
He’s a little older and greyer than in the photo (left).

The concept for ‘A Day of the Region’ was first established in 1999 in Germany as an ‘Open Doors Event’ where organisations and communities in rural areas promoted what was in their own community in an effort to educate locals in an informal way about the opportunities and possibilities available to them in their region. Since this the concept has grown substantially with 8 other European Countries taking the initiative to develop it in their own regions.
‘Discover Duhallow… A Day of the Region’ is about capturing the essence of life in Duhallow and encouraging both locals and visitors alike to take part in the wide range of amenities, clubs and activities throughout our region. This 10 day programme will be a celebration of rural community life and will showcase what Duhallow has to offer those living here as well as those visiting the region. Many people who are new to the area and working outside the region are unaware of the wealth of activities and resources available right here on their door step.
Events organised for Millstreet are: [read more …] “Discover Duhallow … A Day of the Region”

Our weekly services continue at 7pm each Sunday evening in the Canon O’Donovan Centre (kindly granted). However on Sunday 8th July it will be a bit different. We are going to Drishane Castle where, along with a team of helpers from Killarney and further afield, we will be sharing separate adult and children’s programmes with the residents of Drishane from 4pm. Then, after a BBQ meal at the Castle, we will have our normal evening service in the main hall of Drishane Castle at 7pm. Everyone is welcome to attend this event and we are very grateful for the generous facilitation of the management of Drishane Castle in helping to make all this possible. Even if you have never been to one of our meetings before you will be most welcome to attend what should be an inspirational evening. Further information from Rev.
