Our Approach
Mat That Was Pat is dedicated to documenting the life history of Mattias Murphy and his descendants, some of them are in the photos
As part of this we have built some tools to help us, that we think others will find useful
Our Story
Our Story
I took over the family tree that my father had pieced together, sadly with the passing of some relatives we have lost many accounts of life in rural Ireland in the 1800's
So we are trying out best to document what we have , confirm where possible and use that as the basis for finding out more
Meet the Team
Well its not quite a team yet, but we hope the tools we have developed will help us build a big family

I am not saying which one is me.
My credentials for doing this work are simple. Two Irish parents with 10-12 siblings, who each had about 4 kids. That means I have about 100 first cousins !
