The Registrar, Office of Arms & Chancery of the Order of St Patrick, Dublin, Castle. Dublin, Irish Free State. Gentlemen; On request of Consul Mathew Murphy of San Francisco, Calif. I am writing for information in reguard to the history of the MARMION FAMILY, which I understand from my father was ONE FAMILY OF MARMIONS what I mean by this, is they WERE all RELATED. Here are the names of my grand-father & grand-mother. Arthur Marmion who was born in Newry County Down in the year 1790 and died in 1862. He married Catherina Murphy wo was born in 1799 and died in 1869.

Christopher Marmion Macdonell was born in 1828 and his brother Allan was born in July15-1829. Then there was a Stephen Marmion who was born in 1854, this is one family I would like to know, who his father and mother was, and if he ever married in Ireland,which I believe he did not, or did he have any brothers or sisters,I haven't much about him, there fore know little about him,which I would like to know,(his relation to the Marmion family) Any thing you can give me about the Marmion family (2) or the history of them I would appreciate any information or have you to advise me,where I can get the information I am seeking,and what it would cost for your trouble.
